The Christian understanding of WHAT and WHO God is means that God MUST exist because if He didn't, nothing would exist.
What non believers know about the Christian God is usually the result of what the Bible says about him and what his followers say about him. The problem with your claim is that In the eyes of the non believer, the Christian God is described in a way that he is NOT required to exist in order for everything else to exist.

No Ken, non-believers fabricate what they THINK The Bible says about God.
The bible states that God is the creator and sustainer of all and without God, there is no life.
Colossians 1:17
1 Corinthians 8:6
That all the exists is of God.
Without God, ultimately, there would not be anything.
The issue is that non-believers think of God as they do "other gods", simply because they don't realize that the Christian understanding of God means that God IS existence and as the creator of all AND the sustainer of all, without God there is nothing.
That is why comments like "I don't believe in Zeus either" or ' I just believe in one less god than you" are comments of ignorance about God.
