I guess they don't teach you in theology or fine art that you can't prove a negative.
Oh wait, it's stupid and illogical to believe in something there is no evidence for, and believing in god is like believing in the tooth fairy, but you're forgetting one thing, anecdotal evidence. There are few, if any, otherwise sane people who would claim to have seen the tooth fairy. There are countless people who claim to have felt the prescence of god or have had other supernatural experiences.
It would be pretty dumb to start believing in god just cos a couple of people say god exists but with no evidence to back it up, yes, but there is the massive weight of the anecdotal evidence to contend with.
There are far too many people who have had spiritual or supernatural experiences to discount them purely because there is no scientific proof, to discount that much anecdotal evidence an alternative explanation for those experiences would have to be provided.
