Deism is a hypothetical outcome? You were saying that we were all brainwashed not too long ago and that a baby if left alone would grow up to be an atheist. Now, all of a sudden, it's possible to not accept the brainwashing? Interesting.
And, incorrect, God designed Man with the free will to choose. Man chose to be fallen. The "fallen nature" is a self-inflicted wound not a design.
I already gave my proofs for God's existence, besides the Bible, as the Quinquae Viae. To which you called St. Thomas Aquinas a "comparatively well-educated 13th Century bloke."
If atheism is the opposite of theism then prove your claim. If the theist claim is "(a) god exists", then your opposite claim would be "a god does not exist", both would be positive claims requiring evidence. If you want to define your atheism as "a lack of belief" then the opposite would be "having belief" for theism, both would not be positive claims and not require evidence. Since you keep begging for evidence I will assume you mean theism to mean "God exists" (God of Abraham for my specific case), therefore atheism, being the opposite, would be "God does not exist". Hence, you likewise are making a positive claim on the universe. If you have no evidence, which it seems like you don't, then don't pull a fit when you don't like the evidence presented to you and you refuse to properly acknowledge it.
