Stop right there - No they weren't & didn't!!! ...which affirms the idea that he can't be provable in this way.

No it wouldn't. there is nothing that would scientifically prove to you that God exists.

you have absolutely no proof that I have a cat (unless you are a very creepy stalker), by your logic my cat is god.
Just because God, by his nature, cannot be scientifically proven does not mean that everything also not scientifically proven = God. God has other definitions to satisfy.

Belief in a deity constitutes religion, so athiesm still means non-religious.
It would make all us Christians atheist too

Paganism can mean a believer in a deity so no. A non Christian can also be a deist/ theist. Like I said, Buddhism is a religion and can be correctly followed by an atheist.
