Because it's not my responsibility how you choose to live your life, or what you choose to believe or not believe. For me to do so would be to try dictating how you should live your life. No one can decide that but you.

It's not important whether you acknowledge it or not. I acknowledge it for myself. Whether you do or not has no bearing on the issue. Your lack of acknowledgement or refusal of, does not change my beliefs. You're free to believe whatever you like.

I think you're trying to wrap the concept of God into the context of something tangible, like - for example - the big man in the sky that watches over everyone and sees all things. That's not what God is. At least, that's not what my perception of God is. For a christian, perhaps, but not for me.
