But lets talk about that endlessly, at least we won't have to discuss those criticisms of our "argument" that we do not wish to acknowledge.
That was her objection though, to her it is relevant, she is saying I'm taking for granted God exists for the argument to work. So I'm trying to get her past that. So that we can discuss other parts of the argument.
Good for her? Nevertheless, was there anything you wished to respond to in my comment, just quoted, other than something that neither you nor I disagree upon? I don't think that an assumption of god, or the lack of an assumption of god has any bearing on the failure of your arguments (tbh...doesn't seem like she thinks that either). If you made the assumption, if you didn't make the assumption...no matter, they fail for entirely unrelated reasons.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
