Because of lack of any evidence. There is not even enough to develop a hypothesis. Everything points away from a god. The absolute only evidence of any god is 100% anecdotal. If this were a basis for investigation then one would also have to include faeries, trolls, goblins, leprechauns, vampires, werewolves, sirens, ad infinitum.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
