Where is this substantial evidence? Why do we need a supreme entity to justify our existence? My understanding of the evolution of intelligent life is that it is a crap shoot. Without the meteoroid hitting near Chicxulub, Mexico I am not sure if intelligent life would have evolved. If it did, I am not sure humans would have came into existence.
My current understanding is that non-cognitive forces created life based on six numbers. I do not know where these forces or parameters came from, but I am hesitant to fill this gap with god. Here are the six parameters
nu (a ratio of the strength of electrical forces that hold atoms together compared to the force of gravity which is 10 to the 37th power)
epsilon (how firmly the atomic nuclei bind together which is 0.004)
omega (amount of material in the universe)
lambda (force of cosmic "antigravity" discovered in 1998, which is a very small number)
Q (ratio of two fundamental energies, which is 1/100,000)
delta (number of spatial dimensions in our universe)
Science is speculating that there may be multiverses where the physical laws could take on different parameters and geometry could also be different. Tweaking the physical parameters may result in an environment that is not conducive to life.

Why are we unable to understand or reach that supreme cognitive entity? On this I believe is a flaw on ourself. We judge others, the World and the Universe always based on ourself and therefore we may not be able to see, reach or in any way understand cognitive patterns other than ours. Maybe God is hide on plain sight and we simply can't see Him.

I am not sure if I completely understand you, but why did you apply cognition to god? It is possible that god, if god does exist, lives beyond our intelligence, senses, and comprehension. If this is so, what are the observations that leads one to this conclusion?
