The people I deem the best at verifying facts are the ones who are the preeminent fact finders and verifiers on this planet:
These guys. These are the all-stars of weighing the evidence, controlling their biases, collecting, verifying and falsifying the facts, and creating overarching models to describe the implications of those facts (theories). These guys are hands down the best at wrestling whatever information we can from reality. When the vast majority of these experts
(93%) think your God is a myth this should concern you (assuming you care about truth. If you don't then nevermind)

They all say the same thing in so many words:
Not enough evidence. It's the same reason they don't believe Elvis is still alive or that aliens have had intimate contact with humans. This isn't that complicated. If "not enough evidence" is not an intelligent reason then I don't know what is. If you think you're more qualified at deciding what is sufficient evidence than these experts are then the conversation will have to end here because you would have to be severely deluded and I have no idea how to deal with that.
