standard of evidence

[Doubting Thomas]

so what? this could just mean God created nature in a self functioning way.

For all the calls of "fallacy!" you do, you seem to not realize when you make an ad hoc hypothesis.

The reason that absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence of God is that the God idea is so poorly defined that one cannot produce evidence, or even know what would constitute it.

That, and Christians keep moving the goalposts. When it was believed that God was an old man who lived in the clouds, then man took to the air and found no god up there, they determined that God must exist in some other dimension that we can't detect or go to until after we die.
