If you've followed the conversation, you will already know that I've stated that there can be no evidence for this. So why are you asking for it?
Because in my opinion, logic asks for evidence. Your definition of logic seems to be entirely different from mine. I fully respect belief in something, but belief isn't in any way related to logic or reason. In fact, in my book, it's the absence of logic and reason. Otherwise there would be a great many questions to be answered.
That's not logic. That's scientific fact based information. Those facts may logically link. But the logical link is retrofit. Pure logic can be unrestricted. Mathematical purity isn't so much found in nature, only in theory.
You're presented here with a subject that absolutely defies evidence, yet strictly adheres to logic. Address it or don't, are your options.

Yes, but you're filling the gaps with a supernatural being. That's not logical, since everything in the world as we know it points to the absence of the supernatural and the rule of natural laws.
How am I gap filling by saying that I don't know? That's a scientific answer. Please tell me where I'm making a scientific claim about the supernatural, or vice versa.
