Arguments
A possible answer you could give is, "God allows me to know truth from falsity." This demonstrates that you hold this to be an assumed premise, or that you derived this as a conclusion from the premise of God's existence.
Atheists may not share this specific premise with you, but they will still assume a premise to be true that allows them to determine truth from falsity. They decide to reject your premise because it comes with the extraneous assumption that there is a god, an assumption atheists obviously reject.

You believe atheists are ignorant and theists are not? I am curious: what religion do you follow? Do you also consider followers of all other religions ignorant? On what basis is your religion supreme over any other possible world view?
It seems to me that you do not really have a rational basis behind your beliefs, and attacking others' views is the only way for you to feel like you stand on a higher ground than them.

But God allowed humanity to reach their own truths, whether or not they read his work. They observe evidence, whether it's the Bible, refraction, poisons, fossils... then we determine why the evidence is like so. The conclusion we reach will be our truth. I'd go on about Observed Truths and Deduced Truths, but you don't want that.

How do we know our logic is true? Faith. Without God being observable, Athiests have discovered evidence not suggesting God. Theists have found holes in that evidence, suggesting God is real. We have faith our position is true. But faith usually comes from what can be observed. What we observe becomes our truth.
