Imagine living in the most technologically advanced society in the history of Earth and believing a supernatural, omnipotent deity exists. Total yikes.

If you're down with technology that means you're down with science which means you're down with statistics and no matter how much you slice that pie the statistics will tell you there is much higher chance of you not knowing what you don't understand than there is of you knowing what you don't understand, less even of understanding it in the first place.
The Rumsfeld Theorem holds that for you to be able to prove or disprove the existence of a deity, you need to know what you don't know. The Aristotelian Principle holds that a thing cannot at the same time be and not be.
If you want to dress up the mystery in scripture and prophesy, that's funny. But if you want to deny God, you're betting against the house.
