It all depends on how it is worded. If I say "cars are blue." That is a true statement and does not apply in every situation, and can be proven simply by showing a blue car.
But, if I say "All cars are blue" That is probably a false statement, but I can not prove it is false. I can show a red car and that would not be proof as the person could have a psychological disturbance that causes them to see all cars as being blue. I can present different colored cars and those who can visually differentiate between colors will agree all cars are not blue and to them it will be proof. But I still can not prove the statement "All cars are blue" is false. I can only present evidence that some cars are not blue.
Refuting atheists is best left alone and the goal should be tp present them with reasons you believe Allaah(swt) exists. For many a good starting point is to show that the Qur'an was not written by man. Some evidence that supports this are:
1. The views of the early witnesses to the revelations
2. Showing that the Prophet(PBUH) was illiterate
3. Show that the Qur'an contains things that were unknown to the people at that time.
4. Point out the unique style and grammar of the Qur'an by comparing it with other Arabic works of the era
5. There is much more evidence that would be too long for me to type out
Once the Que'an is proven to be the work of Allaah(swt) it can be used as the source to prove the existence of Allaah(swt)
All we can do is present evidence as to why we believe. Everybody else is free to accept or deny the evidence. We can only present, we can not force acceptance, even if we tried too.
