Without your qualifier, Your god can be trivially dismissed as something that could not possibly be more bullshitty. it can still be dismissed with the exact same level of certainty as being of exactly that same sublime level of bullshittiness with the additions of your qualifier.
Read what I wrote more carefully, dear bullshitter. A universe requires a cause, it can't just pop out of nothing. That's why the concept of God is necessary, it's because we care about rationality -unlike you, you think I am arbitrarily adding qualifiers to God to make it escape falsification. Well, no, you got it backwards: our position is that a deity is a necessary condition to existence, it's not an optional add-on. No god means no existence. No entity with sufficient qualifiers means no Anomalocaris.

You can say that, but you’d be wrong, lol.
I see you're cherry picking what you answer to. I said that something like there being infinitely many prime numbers isn't subjected to falsification by experiments, we reach its truth by logical arguments, and it is evidently true.
Your god proposition is neither self-evident, nor provable by logical argumentation. In order for a deductive argument to be sound, it needs to be valid and have true premises. The only way to demonstrate the truth of your premises is with evidence; ya know, that thing you said we were mistaken in asking you for. Further, by your own definition, god cannot be self-evident, because god is not-of-nature and not empirically detectable, therefore the natural word cannot be direct evidence of him.
