The entire point of religion (to me) is to try and put words to something
ineffable. Tell me, can science equate "infinity"?
Hell, for that matter, can science calculate something that happens (once),
or even in an uncontrolled environment? Science struggles proving things
like natural selection just because of all the minute and miniscule details
that come with how genes are bred from one generation to the next.
So, I honestly kinda fail to see how such an imperfect attempt at
calculation can *try* to be more perfect than something hypothetically
perfect, and immeasurable.
Honestly, this is like trying to use numbers to prove/disprove ghosts.
As far as "logic" goes, to me, logic would be;
"Absence of evidence, isn't evidence of absence"
Even on human standards.
Just because there isn't enough evidence to convict someone
of a crime, doesn't mean there was no crime committed. OR
Just because you can't prove "God", doesn't mean he becomes an
impossibility.
When you say that "God" not existing is more logical,
that's leaning toward Atheism, and less Agnostic, in my opinion.
You should consider looking up the word observation in a dictionary.
Also look up "Occam's Razor", the simplest, most logical possibility will be correct infinitely more so than the illogical ones.
