Proof of faith:

That is a foolish statement. It is written, "you shall not tempt the lord your God".
Speaking of foolishness. The idea is to get the proof of your faith. there never will be one.
To quote the bible over sins is to use faith (intangible) to use the absurd to prove something. Go back to your hole and do us all a favor, study theology and other religions, you certainly need it.
Killing one self was and is absurd as the results are:
There is something else:
Oops, I made a serious mistake (atheist)
Oops, I made a serious mistake, wrong god/belief, (whatever believer)
Oops, I went against my belief (ouch, don't ask me who won the jackpot)
S**** I was happy after all! (Everyone)
There is nothing:
In short, my dear Steve, had you read correctly you would have seen the trap behind my statement. But then again, in your zeal to prove nothing but take up space you have to fall into all the pitfalls laid in this thread, one after the other.
If you are a believer, why do you care so much as, if I recall correctly, all religions have a common trait: Those who do not believe will go to hell (or another corrective lifetime, whatever 'punishment meted out' - if any).
Once again, for you , Steve, (and everyone else), the proof of faith is in the pudding, after death. Hasten it, if you want a confirmation of your righteousness, otherwise? Just let it go, who cares one way or another?
I certainly hope that all the stompers here will either put up or shut-up, you know you cannot win such 'debate' . This of course applies to any and all faiths - including atheists.
In essence: The more you try to prove or disprove something the more you appear to be disturbed that the other maybe right. There is nothing to be learned here, other than that.
If you are sure in your beliefs (any), you can just smile.
I do.
