How many times has the Bible said God appeared to such and such (even the fallen angels) and yet they chose not to have faith in him? Knowledge of God does not eliminate our choice to have faith in him.
Just a tiny correction.
If a god were to appear right in front of you, you'd cease to require faith to accept its existence.
Those people in the bible that had first-hand physical contact with the deity didn't need faith. They had proof.

Faith becomes irrelevant.

What is still your choice is whether or not you follow this entity and comply with its desires or requirements.

Now, given that the acceptance of this deity's existence is, apparently, so important that our eternal after-life depends on it and it is "well documented" to interact with humans quite easily, why would anyone require faith regarding such a being? Why doesn't it just present itself to all, just like it has been documented to do to others?
Is it shy?
Is it interested in fostering divergent opinions concerning itself? Ultimately leading to war and destruction?
