Please make a case for your assertion that atheism is the default position of mankind. That is a positive assertion, and one that I do not accept by its statement.

By the simple fact that god has never been physically detected in any way by anyone.

That is the reason why YOU believe that God does not exist.
I can point to several thousand years of human history to show that people believed in the existence of God.
Also, people have claimed, numerous times and in numerous places (especially in the Judaic, Chritian, and Islamic faiths) that yes, God has been physically detectable.
These claims have been believed, in the main, for over 2000 years.
You claim that atheism, though, is the default position when discussing God. What you are doing, though, is simply rejecting the evidence that people have found.
Would you please restate your assertion in a way that does not simply dismiss the evidence as nonexistant?
