It's completely useless to limit a god to any definition until one wants to create a reality. Then laws of nature are created, boundaries are made and possibilities come into existence. Eventually we humans become a thing in this reality and for whatever the reason many of us wonder if the whole thing was dreamed up by some omniscient dictator or by committee. Or did a metaphorical rock start tumbling down a metaphorical hill and in an endless series of accidents and chemical reactions, it all came into being with nobody at the metaphorical wheel.
Evidence I take that there be a god or gods is that there is intelligence in the universe that does not seem so random to me and the model fits well with how I think. Your mileage may vary.
