To state authoritatively that "God doesn't have a damn thing do do with it" as you did is placing yourself in the position of God. If you say that belief in God is unprovable [to you] that is a factual statement.

But to state as though there can be no discussion about it, that God "for sure" doesn't exist means that you are all-knowing, all-seeing, aware and knowledgeable of every facet of and inch and atom of the universe and beyond, can see the vast reaches of all features of time - past, present and future - that your all-encompassing knowledge and vision (one might be tempted to say "God-like vision") can see EVERYTHING that exists, and you can see that "there is no God".

Actually, only someone equal to "God" could make such a statement with total authority and conviction. So YOU must be God!

OK, so you made another argument based on the existence of a God.

Your task is to prove that one exists, and then prove that others don't exist.

I didn't postulate the existence of anything other than a logical flaw in the authors argument.
