How do you know God isn't dead?

[smax]

Being that god doesn't do anything anymore that makes his existence reasonably evident, why is assumed that he is still alive and well?

Clearly he has trouble getting good results from his experiments, who's to say he didn't inadvertently destroy himself, or do something to himself that rendered him useless.

Perhaps he finally tried to make that rock he himself couldn't lift, and then attempted to lift it, throwing his divine back out so to speak?

Or maybe he took the whole "free will" thing too far, limiting his own powers just enough to give Satan the edge in their eternal fued. And with that edge, Satan utterly destroyed him and decided that this whole experiment on Earth was just too damn boring and pointless, and then chose to leave it permanently unattended.

Then again, it could just be that god himself grew tired of this whole experiment and abandoned it. I mean, seriously, how long can humanity hold a god's interest?

What if god somehow committed a sin of some sort, and Jesus had to sacrifice his eternal existence to cover it? Then, without Jesus around to be man's living water, god decided to move on to other experiments.

Okay, last one, I promise:

God has already proven himself to be suicidal, as he actually manifest himself in human form for the very purpose of experiencing and sufferring death. Maybe he liked it a little, and decided to see how it would feel to experience it spiritually. And maybe that was his last experiment at all.

By the way, if god is alive and still interested in his humanity experiment, I challenge him to refix my head on backwards on my body by tommorow morning. I will then wear it that way for the rest of my life as a testament to his existence.

So, we'll all be putting this whole god business to rest within a day. Stay tuned for the results.
