You are simply incorrect.
There is not a single logical argument for the existence of a god that is without at least one fallacy.
The Cosmological Argument, Teleological Argument, Ontological Argument, TAG, have all been shown to be flawed, either in asserting the truth of premises, or validity of the arguments themselves.
Coupled with the lack of evidence, which you say should not even exist, and the only conclusion a critical thinker could come to is that there is no justification to believe.
It isn't just lack of evidence, and just "no justification to believe", it simply is not worth considering. People still do not want to take probability issues into consideration.
When you weigh the amount of evidence that people make up gods, and weigh the fact that science is pointing away from even the need for a god, the answer is obvious.
Not only is their no justification to believe the likelihood of any god existing is
0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001%
It is not worth considering.

Who? Not me. Blunt yes, "vitriol"no. Your parents ever say "KNOCK IT OFF YOUR BEING STUPID". I think you mistake blasphemy and bluntness for hate. Hate in the context of hating bad logic, yes. Hate of human rights, no.
