Your right, I have no evidence. After all belief in God requires 'faith'. However my point is that the absence of evidence does not disprove God's existence, as many atheists seem to think.
It doesn't have to disprove anything. You're making the claim that a god exists and I'm telling you that I do not believe that claim. Do you have any evidence to support that claim? No. Can you provide a convincing reason to believe that claim? No.
Why then, should I believe your claim? Because some old book says so? Because you have been told it's true all your life? I'm afraid that is not good enough for me.
Show me that your claim is true, or worthy of considering, and I will. Until then... I do not.
