As you say, it is impossible to know. But that applies to just about everything. One of the biggest problems I have with belief in God, the Creator, or whatever you want to call it, is that it involves the existence of a sentient, even intelligent, entity, which either is non-corporeal or is somewhere a long way from here. The idea of intelligence and ability to make things happen without corporality goes against everything we know from experience. That leaves the possibility of God living in a remote part of the universe. The whole idea starts to become ridiculous quickly. Then there's the Loch Ness monster/Bigfoot sort of difficulty - no species can survive without a breeding population. So now we need a population of Gods. What do they eat?

The whole idea is so far-fetched on so many levels, I'm willing to say that I know as well as I know anything that there is no God.
