Ok, let's assume that. Do you assume that EVERYONE'S impressions are always correct? If so, then you have to account for crazy people, polytheists, satanists, atheists, etc. If you're truly being neutral about this premise, then your argument can "prove" the existence of ANYTHING just because someone has an impression of it and a word for that impression. So you can simultaneously account for completely antagonistic (and mutually exclusive) views. On the other hand, if you don't assume that everyone's impressions are always correct, how will you decide who to believe without going circular on us? (i.e. finding some way to inevitably have the theists be the believable ones)
