Therefore your request has no sequence, since you know from the beginning I can't reply to you. But, quoting Huxley: And neither do you.
I did not ask you to prove or disprove god. I ask for the evidence of why you do not lack a belief in god. I asked if you could define god. I think these are reasonable questions to ask. I am also curious to know if you are agnostic to every conception of god that has been created throughout the history of humanity?

You previously claimed that atheists believe, without any solid evidence, that god does not exist. Could you also elaborate on you claim; the so-called insubstantial evidence that drove me into the bosom of atheism with respect to a personal god or a god from a revealed religion?
