I and literally billions of other people regularly talk to God. In my own case, I needed physical science plausibility to make the sincere effort which is required. Most other people simply need simple faith to make the effort. It works -- unquestionably works.
Maybe it works, but that in no way proves the mechanism you claim.

I really don't see how you get from A to B. It appears you will latch on to anything and twist it to support your need for there to be 'something'.
I personally think that your presuppositional demand for a god is simply another form of wish-fulfillment.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
