Admit that there are no absolutely
unanswerable arguments proving God’s existence, but that there is more than
sufficient evidence that belief is not unreasonable or stupid. Then try to move
God out of the realm of the abstract and into the realm of reality.

I just said this earlier today on a previous comment. The confusion some have between arguments and proofs amazes me.
