Atheism is simply an interpretation of how these facts (points) intersect with one another. Therefore, facts can point in many ways. An atheist will look at the facts and interpret them one way. The theist will look at the facts and interpret them to fit their mental grid. But neither of these is necessarily reality itself. Reality is in fact only the right interpretation of the facts.

So, let me get this straight: are you amending your question to say
"If there was a loving God, but you couldn't know he existed for sure, would you accept him? Please explain why or why not."?

If so, I'll amend my answer to "No. I would have no reason to believe he existed.".
