I couldn't agree more. I often say that it is more likely that a unicorn is dancing on a rainbow outside of my window than that God does not exist. At least is is rationally possible that such a unicorne exists but that I cannot see him. But it is rationally impossible that God does not exist.
I told my confirmation students that in order to be an honest atheist, one has to remove one's brain, pour it into a blender, turn on the blender, pour it on the ground, let a dog comsume it and barf it up, then pour it back in to his or her head.

You spread intolerance to your confirmation students? Disgusting.

The same goes for an honest fundie - except for the pouring it back into the head part.

Fixed.
No, no, no. The unicorn existing and God existing are equal probabilities. Your data is skewed somehow, and I suggest you re-check your sources.

The unicorn is real, it is pink and it is invisible. But it's a she not a he. If you weren't a blender brain you would know this.

Ooooooooh, so that's why I haven't been receiving my copies of the gay agenda; i'm not classed as an honest atheist yet! Ok, can somebody get me a blender and a dog? Better grab some Anadin Extra too.
Hmm... you must be the bloke from the Monty Python sketch, yelling:
"Doctor !... Doctor! ....... my brains hurts !!"
I wouldn't worry too much, guys - I went through confirmation as a tween, and I turned out fine. Set me upon the path to a rational awakening, it did. Some of them will make it. I hope.
Slight problem with your analogy there.
IF by chance there was a unicorn outside your window you could take a picture or call someone else to come over and see it as well.
However, one cannot show that something does not exist.
Just because one can prove a positive in no way means one can prove a negative.
Really, what idiot wouldn't know that?
Oh.. you.
So, wait, it's impossible that the unobservable, undetectable, unparsimonious man-in-the-sky doesn't exist?
The only reason you think it is logically impossible for God not to exist is because you are presupposing that God is the only possible answer for how existence came into being. But, there is problem: just because it is the only answer you can come up with, does not make it the only possibility! There is no reason to assume that a god exists, especially in the state ascribed to it by any given religion.
My what a charming analogy. I'm sure your confirmation students will either a) become small minded, hateful bigots like yourself or b) realize that you're a douchebag and become atheists, or at least anti-religionists.
Of course the unicorn exists, you can just catch her out of the corner of your eye if the light is right. She lives off of left socks in the dryer.
The honest atheist thing is funny. I mean, I'm honest, I'm an atheist, I have not removed my brain. In fact I spend a lot of time trying to keep my brain engaged. Use it or lose it.

Non sequitur much?
If someone were actually to complete this demonstration it would be the most convincing proof of god I've ever seen.
Oh, yes. When threatened, turn to idiocy. If you weren't so threatened by the mere idea of an atheist; of someone not believing in your god, you wouldn't dedicate so much time and energy to it.
Scared someone is gonna' say something to make your students think rather than blindly follow the path of the adult fundies in their lives?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
