I never said it was, but merely pointed out that it is possible for something to be true even if can not be logically inferred from the evidence, thereby allowing the possibility of a deity
and simultaneously saying it is completely erroneous to conclude that a cheap hack that solves every conundrum we have is based in any way in
logic. How can it at all be logical when it makes so many unfounded assumptions?

Regardless of whether you want to hide behind your words or not, you put to the argument on the table. Saying: "I did not claim anything" or "I used erroneous evidence given to me by others" is no excuse whatsoever. The point is that
even if there is a creator there is absolutely no way to conclude logically that there is, therefore that conclusion, and any "deduction" that derives from it is by extension illogical, even if it is logically sound when isolated. For a legal parallel look up "fruit of the poisonous tree".
