I think it has already been proved.

None of them said what you think they said.

I don't think you know what the word "supernatural" means, either. :-)

Uh, no. I'd look for a solution that's actually likely to work.
If you got in a situation, would you call out to Thor to grant you the
Strength of his Mighty Hammer? Would you cry out for Captain Kirk to beam
up the car that has your loved one pinned? When you understand why you
wouldn't do either of those, you'll understand why even in an emergency I
wouldn't call out to JHVH for help, or whichever one it is you're currently
worshiping.

I'm not sure why you think an atheist wouldn't just start after the
"because" in that sentence.

Your tone makes it sound like "an atheist wouldn't even try" or something. I
think an atheist would also most likely try to lift the car, unless there
was something likely to be more effective than prayer around, like a long
pole and a big rock nearby, say. :-) As I said, you don't have to be a
theist to be irrational. Panic is actually a survival trait, for one thing.
