Pretty often we don't know who is right, or even if anybody is right, but we know those who are wrong.

The Olympus Gods are disproved by themselves, since they were claimed to live at the top of the mountain and nobody lives there...
The religions of the book put God in an unreachable place, so we can't disprove such God existence on the same way, but if you pick some of God's orders from the Old Testament or the Muslim Allah, you'll easily notice that "thing" can't be a God, at best it suits a Demon, if such thing exists.

This turns out because God implies "light", and "light" here is a metaphor to life or healing; when a God requests people to kill each other then you've a "God of Darkness" or a Demon.

Not to mention other issue, and this one should be easy since Jesus was on the World, but strangely it isn't at all. Christ is meant to be born at the Spring (about current April) on Nazareth at Census time... well, what Census?! We've no idea of a Census at that time. Did the Romans set up such a gigantic task to lost its data?!
And Pilate? What do we know about him? He was Procurator of Iudaea until 66 a.C. and was put of the office at the starting of the 1st Jewish uprising, which ended up with the destruction of Jerusalem and with Jews to be castaway to the diaspora. But was already called by Rome on about 36 a.C. due to his reckless and immoral behavior.
But in the end we don't even know if Jesus existed indeed... other than the Gospels (written far after his death), we've no other Historical data. All we've from him is a Jewish passage of questionable authenticity known as the Testimonium Flavianum that states Pilate may ordered to death somebody called Jesus.
