I can imagine something like that. One may very well think God is imaginary, but is required for enforcing morality, for otherwise civilisation would be doomed if left to its own devices, consumed by the nihilism and self-hatred that comes with too much freedom of thought. Or so the argument would go, I can imagine.
I don't how you can not believe that something exists but believe it is required or responsible for something that does exist.
