Sure it does; I don't see you scrambling to profess your belief in monsters under the bed.
By all means, believe in the existence of absolutely everything for which we have no evidence to support its existence; don't blame me for calling you out on your delusion.
My bold.
You're creating a strawman.
I never said we should believe in every single thing that there is no concrete proof of.
I said we shouldn't automatically discard the possibility of absolutely everything there is no immediate, concrete proof of. This is obvious. We can make assumptions, make guesses, theorize, believe certain things, etc. We do it all the time.
Special pleading. There is eactly one more thing without evidence which you support that I don't. Your god isn't deserving of gullible acceptance simply because a portion of the world believes he exists.
Or to put it another way to accept your argument as valid we must, perforce, believe that dragons fairies Lugh Vishnu Odin Quetzovercoatl and hundreds of thousands other unevidenced things to be true also.
