and was left with the fact that you misunderstood what I said.

There is no logical or provable argument for atheism or theism. And that is actually what I said so I cannot understand how exactly you did not see that.

I understand your need to feel that your own position is somehow the only logical one, but holding an unprovable position cannot in any way be called logical.
