Frankly, the default position about the existance of something is in the negative until some objective evidence can be found.
Before man had objective evidence about air he was quite happy to breath it in.
?????!!! Man had plenty of objective evidence about air....he was breathing it!! Plus he knew that if he stayed away from air (ie under water) too long that he died. The animals breathe air without any worries about defining it exactly.
Perhaps you should pick a better analogy.

That he hasn't revealed himself to you or maybe doesn't reveal himself to anyone does not mean he doesn't exist.

edit: breathe vice breath
