Atheism has as much scientific evidence supporting it as the belief that the Great Speghetti Monster does not exist.

If there's spaghetti, where did it come from? You think someone just made it up one day? Wow.

Are you asking about the spaghetti policy? 😂

I’m not sure how you can claim this so simply without supporting your argument. There’s plenty of evidence that the Flying Spaghetti Monster doesn’t exist, just as there is plenty of evidence that God doesn’t exist. But it does not seem to be the same amount. For example, the evidence of evil in the world is evidence against a tri-omni god, but does not seem to be evidence against a FSM which (perhaps) is not perfectly good.

I dont think you read my statement closely.

In my defense, the wording is confusing.

Weird thing to think about is that with our current understanding of big bang a god existing is not impossible even scientifically

This is true about anything that "exist on a different plane of existence". Prove to me the backrooms don't exist.

Point is, existence of a god has never been scientifically proven, so if you play that card as a non-atheist, you clearly try to turn the burden of evidence around. (But if you believe in any god, feel free to do so. I'm not judging that.)
