the whole point of faith is that you cannot prove it to any but yourself. belief in something that you cannot as of yet see. so, any that try to prove it to another do not understand the concept themselves. however, note that sharing is not necessarily trying to prove. i think (legal warning: personal belief) that the line is crossed once people start arguing and trying to convince the other that they're bound for hell, or for a mental institution or something.

I have not ever met one person who could prove there was a god, but they insist there is one.
The only one who could prove that is you, because (personal belief) God is your own eternal self, only searching deep within you can find him.
Religion should be based on realization, so unless you are able to realize this truth by your own experience no one can prove you the existence of God.
The same with the bible or other sacred scriptures, only a man who hasn't stole anything in his whole life can really know the meaning of thou shall not steal, and only a man who hasn't lied once in his whole life can really know the meaning of thou shall not bear false witness.
God changed my life. When I accepted Christ a power came into my life I did not know before. He gives me the power to overcome the sins I struggled with before and the peace that if I died today I would spend eternity with Him. That proves it for me.
As for a concrete, scientific proof, I can't give you that. God is deeper than that. I believe God has to reveal Himself to the unbeliever and He will do that if you will put away your pride and just listen.
some people are not religious, not because they are arrogant or prideful, or not listening, but because they can't understand. it would be very unwise, not to mention hypocritical and unfair, to judge nonbelievers as arrogant just because they don't believe the same things that you do.
