Why or why not?

This objectively rather surreal idea that there is a magical invisible Santa Claus on an invisible throne in space, who created the universe and cares very much whether or not we eat fish on Friday, is an extraordinary claim.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof, otherwise it's no different from any other crazy story made up by madmen.

So, we have to accept any non-falsifiable crazy and/or stupid claim now, or just the ones with a cultural pedigree that is pleasing to you?

This is not how the scientific method works.  Saying "you can't disprove it 'cos God is invisible, neener neener neener!" is meaningless noise.

If you want to be taken seriously, bring me testable claims, otherwise I am equally justified in claiming that my invisible friend Flooby the Douche Beast went back in time to before God existed and pushed God's pregnant mother down a flight of stairs, so there, neener neener you can't disprove it.
