Actually the god claim is falsifiable in this sense. People who believe in gods tend to make claims about gods. For example, there's a belief that gods answer prayers, or are omnipotent, or all loving, and so on.
While the general claim about god may not be falsifiable, the particular claims about gods that people make can easily be proven to be false.
David Hume did it admirably in
Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion, published posthumously in 1779, originally with neither the author's or the publisher's names for fear of persecution.
