Maybe, at best, the existence of a god can be inferred... like dark matter.
Although dark matter has not been directly observed, its existence and properties are inferred from its gravitational effects https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter
Then again, we've been inferring for millennia in lieu of better explanations at the time.
I am very dubious regarding any inference from the empirical to the supernatural. Filling gaps in our understanding with speculation that it may be the result of a consciousness for which everything in our universe is but an arbitrary notion seems silly on the face of it.
