Earthlings owe their very existence, not to God or Mars, but to Jupiter who's movements in the early days of the solar system allowed the Earth the opportunity to fully form and who's ongoing gravitational field continues to protect us from the nasties in the universe.
All hail Jupiter.
Did you also watch that BBC episode with Professor Brian Cox?
@ghost-of-a-dukesaid Okay, let's put our evidence on the table. I can provide conclusive proof that Jupiter exists and that it was fundamental to the formation of our planet and continues to protect us.
Can you do the same for your particular God?
I don't have too much of a problem with "Continues to protect us", but models of the early solar system in the level of detail you require for statements like "fundamental to the formation of our planet" are dicey. "Good evidence for" is fine, but "proof" is too strong. You'd need to show that the Earth could not have formed without the presence of Jupiter.

'Proof' was used in regards to the existence of Jupiter.
There is 'good evidence' that Jupiter was fundamental to the formation of our planet.
