If there exists objective evidence for something, and it can be shown as such quite clearly to the person experiencing it, then it becomes quite plausible to begin wondering about a God or Gods in relation to this evidence.Watson on one hand you claim there are no reasonable grounds for unbelief and there is plenty of evidence for a god if we open our eyes and stop being in denial. Then you claim that all our experiences are subjective. I can't see how you can reconcile these positions?
If your evidence for god is objective, it would therefore validate your argument and be available to us all(not sure what that evidence is but anyway), or it is subjective and valueless as a truth claim.
On this basis I would say there are unchallengabley strong grounds for reasonable unbelief and therefore the claim that a god is all living is empty.
