The only tenable position is that of the true agnostic, who simply says that there is no way of either proving or disproving the existence of God

Well said, thank you.

Was there myself for many years. The existence of an orderly and sublime universe (Why is there something and not nothing?) together with a numinous experience or two led me to conclude that the universe is God-infused and that science's success has been a function of God's dependability. But I don't get "points" for converting anyone -- you will learn and know and be satisfied in accord with your need and capacity. My recommendation would be to trust yourself and your life experiences and not what someone else says about them. But you didn't ask for my recommendation. If you run across pariah's stuff on these and similar threads, you may find it illuminating. It is certainly deep.
