In the absence of proof, I have gone with balance of probability. You can't prove that there is or is not a God, but which do you consider more likely?

How could you know what the "probability" is of something you know nothing about? What would make the odds lean away from 50/50, in either direction? I would think that would require some kind of proof, not just a belief bent in a particular direction. Ask a christian which way the odds are balanced, and Im sure you wont get 60/40 with atheism in the lead, because both of your views are such that you would "think" one is more likely than the other, when you really cant know at all what the odds are.
