Elaine Pfeiffer - Exactly. There was once no evidence for DNA ... or germs ... or air. Science hadn't reached a point where it could quantify these realities and so people didn't know they existed. When germ theory was first advanced, there were a lot of scoffers because it hadn't been proven and nobody could see the germs. Technology advanced and now nobody scoffs at the idea of germs.

I wouldn't, however, say there is no evidence for God. There is no scientific evidence because science deals with the observation of the material world, but there is other evidence. Paul the apostle said in Romans 1 that the universe itself is evidence for God and that evidence is so obvious you have to work to ignore it (paraphrasing). And that was certainly my experience. I scoffed about God until I reached a point where I admitted I didn't know everything and then I started to see the evidence for God like a light was turned on in a dark room

Lack of belief is not proof of non-existence
