Of course I use logic. I try to use nothing else when I'm finding the truth of things. But I don't see any logic in your argument.
You assume that something exists, and then you check if it contradicts reality. If it doesn't, then it exists.
Is that your method? I can't see anything else going on.
I didn't become an atheist for any reason, I've been an atheist my whole life. For one simple reason, no theistic claims have ever met their burden of proof. Or even lifted the burden a millimetre off the ground.
For example, how do I tell which of the thousands of demominations of christianty is the right one? Yours is, I take it? And how do I tell whether God is Yahweh or Allah? Muslims will argue as strongly as you that you are totally wrong.
If we don't have a method to determine what is true and what is made up, we get situations like this.
