...to know there is no God?
No modifying the question. Please.
Imagine a measuring rod that was a mile long, at one end is ultimate assured knowing and at the other end is ultimate faith - everyone is along that spectrum probably as a normal distribution but with no one at each of the extremes.
Now to argue that one has to "know" that there is no God in order to somehow satisfy a need to prove that God does not exist is like saying I need to know that there are no tooth fairies in order to prove that their are no tooth fairies.
Most people just sit in the middle of the spectrum and don't care either way.

the dog reply is just another way of asking about the state of pain, death, evil and malformed animals and humans that are born, etc.

If one says "there is no God", then it stands to reason they know why there is no God.
Apparently the atheists in this forum don't have a valid reason based on knowledge of why they think there is no God.
Perhaps though, based on your spurious rationale above, you haven't read psalm 19 or Romans 1.

Are you aware of how dumb this is as an argument to an atheist?

And are you aware of how dumb it is to accuse me of using the Bible to prove a point about the existence of God, especially since it was to you I referenced the Bible at all in this thread?
Nothing dumber than a so-called Christian that argues and debates as though he doesn't know which side of the argument he stands.
