An event would have to occur that could not attributed to logic or reason. This event would have to be confirmed true beyond a reasonable doubt. An event that cannot be explained due to lack of knowledge or technology is insufficient. Example: at one point in time, lightning was believed to be the work of god. Later on, humans discovered why lightning occurs. God cannot merely be a gap filler, but must be the undeniable source.
Examples of things that would convince me:
Someone dead for more than 1 full day comes back to life.
I see a ghost/angel/something of the sort.
God speaks to me.
Jesus speaks to me.
God or Jesus speak to anyone and I see it.
An amputee's lost limb returns.
I witness something disappear into thin air.
A dead person speaks to me.
There are more obviously, but this should make it clear along the lines of what it would take to make me believe. It would have to be an event that cannot possibly be ascribed to logic or reason, but at the same time, be one where the mere fact that it happened is enough to prove god's existence. In other words, it's not something where humans will discover the answer to or reason behind in the future; it's clearly supernatural.
An in response to Mugg: 1. Yeah it looks like god really hates the Japanese; after all, he's pretty much wiped them out 3 times in the past 65 years. 2. I'm not asking for absolute proof, just proof beyond a reasonable doubt (but as we know, there is no way anyone can meet this burden of proof)
I will say this with certainty. If there is a god, he certainly, undeniably, and positively is NOT all-good.
