First of all, in this case I define God as the Abramic God, i.e. the God of the Bible.
For this character there is of course no evidence, however, this alone is not quite enough for me to completely dismiss the concept. After all, there is no evidence for life beyond our planet but I personally believe the Universe is full of the stuff.
The real problem for me as far as a belief in God is concerned is one of verisimilitude. Not only is there zero evidence but also the very idea that such a character as explained in the Bible, Qu'ran etc. and then by definition the nature of reality could be the truth is so extremely at odds with the reality that we see around us as to be nonsensical.
If this specific God really does exist then he has a lot of explaining to do as he must have set things up in such a way as to deliberately deceive all those amongst us with an intellectual curiosity about the world around us.
This, of course, adds even more weight to my argument for lack of verisimilitude.
