What "ilk" of people are, supposedly, according to you, "against guns?"
Homosexuals?
Those who support the right to same sex marriage?
People who don't follow a religion?

Well, there have been thousands of gods dreamed up in the hearts and minds of humans across the globe and throughout history.
Whether or not a god or gods exist is beyond human knowledge.
But we can say with certainty there is no reason to proclaim one god or one pantheon of gods exist and is "real" and all others are false.
In other words, there is no more reason whatsoever to assert that Yahweh is real and the Judeo-Christian Bible is "right" than there is to say the same of Zeus, Vishnu or Odin and their attendant holy books, belief systems, etc.

I don't have to; that is up to each person whether to believe or not. And it would be silly to try and "prove" faith to non-believers.
Enjoy your popcorn.
