Best and worst arguments against the existence of God

[°Leprechaun]

The best argument that I am aware of is that the absence of evidence is evidence for absence.

This is self evident to me.

The question in my mind, is not just whether there is evidence that nothing spiritual exists or that there is no afterlife*, but can anyone know for sure (prove) that death=personal extinction.

I don't think that this question is all that important, because whatever my opinion is, the fact of death is not going to change regardless of what I believe. So, if I believe something that isn't true, it won't change the fact of what the truth really is.
(in other words, if I believed in an afterlife, it wouldn't change the fact that there is no afterlife, if that is what is true). So what I believe doesn't really matter anyway.

The solution to this conundrum is to simply live in the present, since that is what matters anyway.

*of course, it is possible to believe in a purely physical afterlife (some beliefs in reincarnation are purely physical.
