That is single, and One, and all encompassing." You have no basis for that leap.Nope.
From the idea that God cannot be ruled out, it does not follow that there is a God at all, nor does it follow that there must be only one god, nor does it follow that it must be "all encompassing" (whatever that is supposed to mean).
You are committing the fallacy known as argumentum ad ignorantiam.
To give you an analogy for what you are doing: Suppose I cannot rule out the possibility of quantum leprechauns living at the bottom of a well. From that, it does not follow that there actually are quantum leprechauns living at the bottom of the well and they are Irish. It is essentially going from not knowing something, to making up stuff. Doing that is irrational and unfounded.
It's going off the fact that sciences best description for existence in that it is all of a similar immaterial substance.
From that substance all being of the nature that we know it to be coupled with ancient text and centered sense of self(selfless, all are one consciousness) we can easily deduce that there is indeed one creator, and two opposing forces that are very similar yet work in opposing directions.
