Uh, yeah, it does. That's kind of the definition of a 'proof'. Saying "my proof works unless you're an atheist" is ridiculous.
So just because you don't acknowledge something it ceases to be a proof?
If I don't acknowledge 1 + 1 = 2, then all of a sudden mathematics is a bunch non proven axioms?
No, I don't just reject your "proof" I reject your premises. I don't believe in any supernatural/theistic beings or mechanisms, because they haven't been demonstrated to exist. You can't then use those (undemonstrated) supernatural/theistic ideas to justify your conclusion that the supernatural/theistic source (God) exists.
