I have similar thoughts on the OP issue, belief has never been the problem - if a person sees a god, they're going to believe in a gods existence just the same as a person who sees the King of Nu is going to believe in that king's existence. Rational beliefs can be accurate or in error.
A christian wastes their time bickering with me over the existence of their silly gods just as a Numian would waste their time arguing to establish the existence of the King of Nu. That the contents of a christians belief tends to be a laundry list of ridiculous superstitions is amusing to me, but has nothing to do with why I'm not a christian. Washing myself in the blood of the better man is not compelling to me. No matter how their personal agent is supposed to intercede on my behalf in this transaction, I'm not looking to string up any jews for my innumerable sins.
Christianity is a non-starter. It could all be true and that wouldn't mean anything to me.
