What do you consider evidence? That's a key question.
Actual proof that something exists.
In your gravity example, the fact that I am (more than I care for) solidly
attached to the chair I am sitting in is proof that what we call gravity is
real.
Understanding the mechanics of it doesn't matter.
My wife's eyes glaze over when I start explaining the finer points of
carburetion, but this doesn't stop her from using her carburetted Toyota to
drive downtown.
In the God example, the evidence (for me) just isn't there.
You may believe in a supreme being (actually, so do I, but not in the same
way religious people do), a creator or whatever, but I have been shown no
hard proof of this existence.
