where is god said:You can believe in rebirth but no god, but that's not really what you are asking...
No.

tathagatha said:Yes, it's called Deism.
"in the philosophy of religion is the standpoint that reason and observation of the natural world, without the need for organized religion, can determine that a supreme being created the universe. Further the term often implies that this supreme being does not intervene in human affairs or suspend the natural laws of the universe."

But you're right, it's logically fallacious to assume that this lack of seeing one automatically means one doesn't exist.
