I think most people simplify this argument, it's not that you have to positively prove something to an individual. You have to show that something is capable of existing. Anything that exists can be measured in some way, whether that is light spectrum or electronic weight. Since most Theists agree that there is no way to measure God I think they would be better off just admitting that they believe in his existence on faith rather than even bother with the evidence.
It's really an oversimplification of the argument although I don't blame you, since most people using it over simplify it as well.
So, atoms did not exist before we could measure them, interesting me thinks. By the way it is our fault we can not measure God not His, since we're at fault here, how is it one says God does not exist.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
