However, I did not/do not do so merely because of a presupposition that non-physical things cannot exist.Out of curiosity how did you rule out the possibility of God's existence? Secondly, if you believe that non-physical things cannot exist how do you account for universal laws of logic? They are non-physical things.

If it could be proven beyond doubt that God exists...
and that He is the one spoken of in the Bible...
