It's almost 1am here, I'll try to get back to you tomorrow. Lots of food for thought here, I need to reflect! Thank you for your engagement :)
For instance, there can hardly be a valid perceptual observation that informs you that you were created by an intentional being rather than a mechanical process. It is important to not engage in motivated reasoning.

There can be no evidence for the existence of an ontologically existing being that is omnipotent. If you find yourself holding non-zero confidence in its existence (i.e. confidence that is higher than evidential support), your mind finds itself in its presence, but it's not true.

What is true is that you indeed have that experience, because you (as an experiencing self) exist inside of the mind that generates you based on its confidences, regardless of whether the confidence is based on sound epistemology. Religion usually breaks epistemology.
