The word is support and this is what I'm trying to do right now, not conclusively prove beyond a shadow of any doubt. It's worth bearing in mind that naturalist/materialist philosophy as a belief is still possibly true that can't be entirely discounted. It would be disaster and a living horror if it were true not that I'm saying you should believe in God merely because of that but because it's rational, it makes sense and it's something of value in human life. The main point to get across here though is that God is compatible with science, the laws of physics (he made them), cosmology and biological evolution. You can have all your regular mainstream science and a faith in God.
The word is support. You have no positive support for God. All you have are gaps in which you can hide from science and philosophical nonsense. Whether or not god is compatible with science is beside the point. Bigfoot is compatible with science.
As I'm as close to sure as possible that there's no god, I find just as much beauty and wonder in the universe as I find horrors. In fact, the whole thing is all the more impressive to me because it's not some cosmic tyrant's plaything. I find value in human life, both my own and others. I'm happy. I don't need the imaginary crutch you apparently can't live without.
