You claim to have studies logic.In that case you should be acutely aware logic guarantees truth if and only if the premise can be proved to be true. In daily life, and in matters metaphysical 'proof' 'means 'empirical evidence' to me.
That an assertion such as the existence of God cannot be proved [or disproved] is not my problem. All that means is that I am unable to believe. At best, I am able to speak of likelihood.Based on the lack of any credible evidence,the best I am able to say is the existence of god is unlikely. (on Dawkins' scale of 7, a 6.9 against)
