well sure. but its a bit of apples and oranges there. I mean every year hundreds of new species are found in remote locations all over the world. the mathematical (archealogical really) evidence for finding a huge dinosaur in a body of water in scotland are remote but anything is possible i suppose. but you could probably say the odds are fantastic.
where as we can assume god is not hiding somewhere in the bottom of a lake or in some remote vietnamese mountain jungle. gods "existance" is a vastly more complicated conundrum because we dont know how really to define gods existance. we cant really concieve it in the same way we can an animal on earth. thats where the equation ends and you have no choice but to say its gotta be opinion until we find out otherwise.

So you're saying that each for each individual, whether God exists or not has to be a matter of opinion until they find out one way or the other?

Are you also saying that we cannot know or believe in God unless there is verifiable scientific fact?

Forgive me if I'm not understanding you.
