Throughout history, mankind has tossed many religions on the scrap heap.

Well you didn't actually. Take a look at the above. Clearly skoro was referring to the many religions that are now on the dusty shelves of mythology. You clearly asked him to name one of them. He gave you 5.
Let me give you an example what you might think is something easy to prove.
Prove the existence of oxygen, something you cannot see or taste or touch. Simply provide incontrovertible proof.
The existence of oxygen is demonstrable, don't expect us to educate YOU, just because you are too lazy to find the simple experiments that confirm the existence of oxygen.

You surmise that they prove it, because you accept a premise or claim as valid.
Who says?
I actually had an example in mind when I asked the question. But one can't prove that the PREMISE is a valid one.
Is it a tasteless, odorless, colorless gas that permits combustion? How do we know that the premise "permits combustion" is valid? How do we know that there is not another gas that "permits combustion" like hydrogen? How do we know that we aren't just arbitrarily coming up with labels for gases that don't actually exist?
Where, exactly, is that electron, and how do you demonstrate which electrons belong to which atoms?

Again I will not educate you, especially on topics you should have learned about when you were 15.
The problem about being willfully ignorant, is that you are ignorant..
