You are correct in saying that there is not a scintilla of evidence for any god(s) and there never was.
Why do people believe when there is no evidence to prove God's existence and so much proof against it?
We do not " prove " negatives, so there is no evidence " against " god's existence.

It is comforting to believe that everything has a plan, that no matter what, things will end up well if you follow a certain dogma. Chaos and oblivion are terrifying concepts to comprehend and accept, especially to early man. In our history, it was always the religious leaders that held the answers to the universe. Those leaders today are challenged by science and theories such as evolution and (400 years ago) the heliocentric theory.
However this does not mean the god does not exist, it does disprove the events and "facts" in the bible. The bible was written by ancient man trying to understand the origins and meaning of the universe, and is easily debunked by modern man. But you cannot debunk the possibility of a higher being. In the same way that you cannot prove god, you cannot disprove him either. Modern religion is wrong in how they define a god because it cannot be defined. If there is something outside of our universe, there is no way to prove it, no way to disprove it, and no way we can possibly comprehend it within our bounds of science and mathematics, nor spiritually.
Simply put, modern religion is wrong, but you cannot prove or disprove god.
Look into the Schrodinger's cat experiment and poke around a bit. You may be surprised with what you find.
