I'm not aware of any Police Officer, F.B.I Agent, or C.I.A Agent that only investigates half of the crime scene, and then they openly tell the Public, we have come to the conclusion that "lack of evidence" clears..so and so.. from scene of the crime.The only thing the police will conclude with that "lack of evidence" is that they don't know if the guy is guilty.The lack of evidence only tells you that there's no reason right now to believe God exists or not.

Just because what we can explore shows no evidence of God, so that means he's not somewhere beyond every step we approach? How do you know? The entire Universe is not testable. No way, no how.Lack of evidence is not a conclusion, it's a present statement. And as you said the entire universe is not testable so why conclude god DO exists ? and WHICH one ?

What caused this ruler of all species to start living? Nothing? How did "Something come from nothing?"Even if you have evidence that life generated itself from non-living to living (I don't know if that's true, looks more like a hypothesis to me, but anyway), you just don't know if it came from nothing or anything else (how do you know living things doesn't come from non living ones ?). And even if it does what's the logical consequence to conclude that it proves God's existence?

Proof of supernatural events;
God told Adam & Eve when they broke the Law, "You shall surely die!" Human-kind is the only species on Earth that knows in advance that it's going to die.
How can you be sure of this ? Even if it's true (I did learn this in school by the way), How do you know it's because God wanted it and not because we're the only one now on earth whose brains are enough developed to come to that conclusion ? ( by the way a young child doesn't know he's gonna die, he only understands the concept of death when he reached a certain age).
Moreover that doesn't prove the christian god exists, any "holy" book with a similar story could prove its god's existence then.
