Why? I don't need to. We are discussing an ontological question.
I don't need to get distracted defending a narrow epistemological position that has no relevance to the ontological question.
I'de be happy to take up your questions separately, but not as a red-herring distraction away from the Ontology in question.
You are arguing for the existence of god, by extension... your particular brand of god.
It is not a distraction, it is relevant.
