On the contrary. Here's one tried and true method:

Find a purported Son of God Who is co-extensive with God. Kill him. Watch
to see if the corpse comes back to life and ascends in Glory to Heaven. If
he just comes back to life but *doesn't* ascend, take tissue samples and
study closely before marketing miracle ingredient. Really, you have nothing
to lose either way (He'll forgive you for killing him, and anyway it only
stung for a moment).
