God is disproven by science? Really?

I don't have any reason to believe that you can. You seem to be claiming God's abilities for your own from what I am seeing.

But you refuse to properly "test the spirits". You have no way to properly judge the Bible. I have asked you how you would do it and you could only come up with failed tests.

No He didn't. He told us a method that has limited utility, because you still cannot discern someone that is a really good liar. Look at all the highly regarded Christian ministers that had their hand in the till or were abusing church members and/or children.

Even if you could do it, how would I know you could? That is part of that subjective problem we were talking about.

Yes, if you claim that God does not exist, then, you basically claim that an Intelligent Designer or Intelligent creator of say, universe, life, etc, does not exist. But, what do you mean by intelligence and why?

Which of the numerous intelligent creators are you talking about. You keep dodging this question.

Many people mostly atheists believe that God has been disproven or has being shown to be non-existent. But if you knew the definition and explanation of intelligence, or its variants, or synonyms, you will never claim such illogical claim. Thus, intelligence protects the existence of God from those non-intelligent persons.
I question this. Link?
I've never heard of an atheist, or a scientist, who believes God has been disproven or shown to be non-existent. Most atheists base their lack of belief on lack of evidence.
See below:
Every claim must have always basis. If your basis is non-intelligence, then, what do you mean by that?
Atheism makes no claims, it just believes every claim must be supported with evidence beforeit's accepted, ie: it entails a burden of proof.
This is exactly why we lack belief, the theists have not met their burden. Belief in God lacks a basis.
This is also why we -- and probably yourself -- don't believe in unicorns or Martians.
Every claim must have always basis. If your basis is non-intelligence, then, what do you mean by that?
My 'basis' is the fact that the theists have offered no basis; no empirclal evidence. It's not intelligent to believe in things without evidence/a basis.

Q: What do you mean by "non-intelligence?"

God gave people gifts for the edifying of the Body of Christ:
“There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.”
‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭12:4-11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Yes, people can lie but when the gifts of the Spirit are in operation that person is exposed. A persons sin always finds them out as well. There are many corrupt Pastors that are going to be exposed for their perversions. Congregations get deceived a lot of the time because they don’t study the word of God, hear from Him and just take a leaders word.

People can also be self deluded. It happens quite often. When a person cannot nationally justify one's beliefs it is not a good sign.

I wonder why those pastors were able to lie and get away with it for so long? Or why it is often the authorities that find them out and not their flocks? Strange.

The authorities we have are also given by God to prosecute lawlessness. That’s one reason we are to pray for them. So we can live in peace and have the freedom to worship and live for God.
This is why evil runs rampant in our society:
“Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.”
‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭8:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

When we have rape, murder, theft, destruction going on and people aren’t prosecuted or a slap on the wrist what’s the deterrent? The sentence should fit the crime

What makes you think that "evil runs rampant"?
