If gods existence cannot be known(i.e proven) then the only logical conclusion is that he doesn't exist.

Same as unicorns, trolls, Russells teapot and Jesus.

Lacking knowledge about P does not mean you can conclude logically that ~P, it simply means you have no knowledge that P... It doesn't even say anything about whether or not your beleifs are justified, for example; I don't have knowledge that my cellphone will cease to function in about a week but I believe it will because of numerous flaws that I have encountered recently that seem to be very typical indicators of Nokia failures - My belief that my phone will cease to function is justified despite my not knowing.

But you have demonstrable indications that your phone will fail. (Nokias are rubbish)

My point being that god might well exist, along with unicorns, trolls etc. but belief without evidence is, well, unfounded.

There could be a planet circling a blue giant in M33 in Andromeda.

Statisically this is very likely, but without evidence will you believe this, or state it to be the case?
