Do you believe the supernatural exists? If not, then surely you can see how Dawkins defined God as non-existent from the start.
However miracles would be out for a start, as they are defined as things that are inexplicable by natural or scientific law, I assume you know that miracles form a large part of the beliefs of most Christians?
