Why do atheists always argue about the existence of suffering in the world as meaning God doesn't exist when it doesn't prove anything?

Existence of evil => God doesn’t exist

For some atheists, however, the argument is convincing.

Does the U.S military really prosecute military staff for cheating on their spouse, or do they close one eye if the cheating does not involve other military personnel since adultery is fairly common? Adultery is illegal in U.S military

Question: Why do atheists always argue about the existence of suffering in the world as meaning God doesn't exist when it doesn't prove anything?

They bring up the argument because they find it convincing.

A rational person can easily refute a flat-earther argument that the surface of the Earth is not curved. For a flat-earther, however, his (or her) argument against a curved earth, is convincing.
