You have it completely ass-backwards.

Let your god present himself for examination... until such time it is easy for me to point out that there is no evidence for him....or any of the other thousands of gods ever invented by humans...at all.

I don not believe in God. But I like you do not have all the evidence required to deny the existence of God. I would agree that, based upon our current undertsanding, the odds are in favour of God's non existence but since our knowledege base may be only a drop in the ocean it cannot be ascerted that God does not exist, it is at best a belief based upon current understanding.
