No one and nothing "proves" the existence of God in the manner you seek it.
No right minded christian would assert as such. Belief in God is a leap of faith, for some, the leap is a manageable distance. For others, it is a cavernous distance that only a fool would attempt.

there's also a lot of symmetry between water/electrical/light based system (plumbing has the equivalent of a transistor for example) and rays/waves, so maybe that's just the extrapolation of micro forces/rulesets (physics/mechanics)...
You may be right. The universe may just be running on a set of incredibly complex extrapolations from an original point. However (1) Such a theory is just as unprovable as the existence of God; and (2) The question of origin remains - how were the extrapolations set in motion? Did they spring from nothingness? Was a blank universe "programed" somehow? Even if running on giant infinitely continous "loop" program, how was the universe set in motion?

As to the origin, Atheists, as I understand it, assert either (1) nothing came from nothing and eventually we will be able to prove it; or (2) no f'ing clue, but, however, it happened it is or will be explainable by the scientific method.

Theists simply say - no f'ing clue but it was the result of a creator who's ulitmate and entire being cannot be proven by the scientific method.
