For a start that's not the way it works, you prove the existence of something.
I also have no desire to prove anything, I'm happy with the way I conduct my life, I think I'm a good person. I don't need another hierarchy to tell me that. I've already told you I'm agnostic, to be honest even if I knew God existed, I don't think I'd lead life any differently.

So a serial killer who believes in God will get into heaven. But a hardworking single mother who juggles three jobs, in order to give her children a good life won't? See what's wrong here?
You don't understand God's standard of rigteousness. Nothing (absolutely nothing) that you do in your own strength or merit will make it possible for you to go to Heaven. No person is good enough to get into Heaven. It does not matter how many jobs you work, money you give, lives you help, Bibles you read, church services you attend, how many times you are baptized, how much you fast, how many masses you attend, hail mary's you recite, meccas you take, times you bow--without Jesus Christ no one will make into Heaven. The sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross (i.e. His death, burial, and resurrection) is the only way to get into Heaven. Jesus is the Way to God in Heaven. Jesus is the Door to God in Heaven. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (i.e. everlasting life). No one comes to the Father (i.e. God) except through Jesus Christ.

First, show me that there is not overwhelming evidence for God's existence, afterwards I will provide this evidence.
Erm.. look around you? What is there? The so called Bible, and that is it. Throughout all of recorded human history that one single book is the only thing that says there is a god. And that isn't even evidence, it's a book wrote by men.

This does not change the fact that you are a sinner destined to spend eternity in Hell unless you choose Jesus Christ before you die.

Which is why the whole idea is unappealing. People believe because of fear of the unknown, it's a simple command believe this and you will have eternal life. But, it's a hierarchy there's no equality offered, which means it's not essentially a righteous principle, but a selective, exclusive club.

The DNA molecule is one major evidence for the existence of God. How do you explain its complication Boris?

It really was a rhetorical question Boris designed to jog your mind to think rationally and logically. The atheistic position fails to account for and explain the complexity of even a strand of DNA. One strand of DNA has more information than the entire Encylopedia Britannica and yet you believe that it just came about without an intelligent Designer? Question: did the Encyclopedia Britannica come about without an intelligent designer? Answer me.
