When we're talking about anything immaterial, supernatural, metaphysical, or anything else with no demonstrable, material existence, of course the "criteria of demonstration" breaks down. There is no evidence for any of that bullshit existing, aside from what people have made up and insisted upon. That's what's so great about the supernatural; you can make up any rules you want for it and make it whatever kind of object or character you desire because there's no way to "disprove its existence" per se and "I just don't see how it could be anything else" and "you have to admit it's at least possible" and yadda yadda yadda...
Your argument revolves around the exact same kind of side-stepping that Theists use to explain how their respective Gauds could exist outside of space and time as we know it; by simply placing Jehovah/Allah/The Mind Thing/The Flying Spaghetti Monster in the realm of "immaterial" things (and therefore outside material existence and beyond material evidence) you/they dodge any responsibility for proving your claims with evidence, restricting yourselves to circular logic, false claims, and fallacious reasoning. This is why science demands evidence from people like you; your claim is not just philosophical because it's a claim about the nature and origin of material existence, and it insists on using faith/"reason" rather than evidence as a basis for belief, making it a religious claim. The nature and origin of existence is not a question for religion or philosophy, it's a question for science. You don't get to just throw anything you want in there because you think it answers a question and you like the way it sounds. Your Gaud is a god of the gaps, argued from incredulity and ignorance, just like everyone else's.
To put it bluntly, your argument is not new. You just have a different mask stapled to the god-voice in your confused little head.

Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
