"He who trusts in his own heart is a fool...." Proverbs 28:26
"For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, 'He catches the wise in their own craftiness'; and again, 'The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.'" 1 Corinthians 3:19-20
"...the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." 1 Corinthians 2:14-15
"The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God.' Psalm 53:1
"Fools mock at sin, but among the upright there is favor." Proverbs 14:9
"A fool has no delight in understanding, but in expressing his own heart." Proverbs 18:2
"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools..." Romans 1:20-22
"The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but he who heeds counsel is wise." Proverbs 12:15
"He who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will be destroyed." Proverbs 13:20
"For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are saved it is the power of God. For it is written: 'I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.'
"Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
"For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men." 1 Corinthians 1:18-25
"...God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;" 1 Corinthians 1:27
"Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God." 1 Corinthians 2:12

Rinkelstein,
I am assuming you are asking me to prove that God exists?
I am definitely not a theologian or a bible scholar, but I do have a pretty solid foundation
in understanding the God of the Bible. I am working on gathering resources from others
who have written about this topic, which I am sure that this question has been asked for thousands of years.
While I am forming my answer, I would ask you to:
Prove that God DOESN'T exist or at minimum that there is some sort of Supreme Being that created the universe

Santa did not die for my sins... Santa never healed the lame, raised people from the dead, proclaimed to be the Son of God, made a way for people to come to spend eternity with God the Father in heaven, Taught others how to live the way God desires, Santa doesn't live inside me, Santa can't help me through trials and tribulations, Santa will not judge me on judgement day, Santa will never create a new heaven and a new earth... just to name a few things he will never do that Jesus has done and will do...
So yeah, if you would like to prove that God doesn't exist, I will do my best to prove that he does exist...
Not sure what you believe on how this universe was created, but it got here somehow, and we exist so this is real,
according the Bible us humans and the universe was intricately designed for God's good will and pleasure,
Here are a few just human observations to chew on that we are intricately designed:
[www.everystudent.com]
This is probably one of my favorite scientific observations:
The Earth is located the right distance from the sun. Consider the temperature swings we encounter, roughly -30 degrees to +120 degrees. If the Earth were any further away from the sun, we would all freeze. Any closer and we would burn up. Even a fractional variance in the Earth's position to the sun would make life on Earth impossible. The Earth remains this perfect distance from the sun while it rotates around the sun at a speed of nearly 67,000 mph. It is also rotating on its axis, allowing the entire surface of the Earth to be properly warmed and cooled every day.
