- You can't disprove god
Most things cannot be diproved, this doesn't make them real.
The likelihood for the existence of toothfairies, or any kind of supernatural entity, is equally low and can be safely neglected, given that there isn't a hint of evidence for them.
- Big bang is evidence for god
"Well either it has been created or it has not. Flip a coin and call a side,
you'll be right 50% of the time"
Being at chance level fails to be impressive.
Moreover, I would like to mention that not all researchers buy the big bang theory. The endless universe alternative is alive and supported by foremost physicists.

- Fine tuning is evidence for god
So the answer for fine tuning, here again, is very probably evolution. The inflationary scenario seems to come with eternal inflation, which would produce tens of thousands of googles of bubble universes, each of which would have a different tuning. Other researchers have advocated a kind of cosmological natural selection mediated by black-holes -they would be the place where other baby universes are created.
- Religion provides moral guidance
- Well that is, when it doesn't tell you to kill people. Plenty of things provide moral guidance. Introspection, friendship, benevolent work..The point is:
- Why not look for a kind of moral guidance where you actually don't have to buy the whole "belief-without-evidence" package
- From the theist: Quitting my religion would hurt people I love
So first: you should stop hurting yourself and quit.
Then peacefully explain to your religious relatives and friends that you cannot keep on hurting yourself.
People who really love you will understand and accept your new difference. The others..well these were relationships probably not much worth cultivating anyway.
- From the atheist: not going to some religious ceremonies would hurt people I love
Idem!
