The claim is not "there is no god".

The claim is that there is a god, or multiples of them

There's no need to claim that there is no god? It doesn't make any sense to try to prove something like that. A claim requires evidence, extraordinary claims requires extraordinary evidence.

For example many people think that "there's no gods, and theistic religions are harmful to our society"

The claim is not "there is no god".

I don't know that to tell you. This seems internally inconsistent.

Yes, "there's no god" is not a claim, it's just the logical conclusion from all of this.

It's like concluding that daddy long legs didn't evolve from a Chinese dragon
