If you believe belief in God for mystic reasons is unreasonable, then that's up to you. But you haven't proven it to me that it is. Claiming it is so is not proof either.
It is unreasonable by the very definition of reasonable. You did not reason your belief - you have belief without evidence.
If you make some assumptions and then reason from those, though the reasoning might be perfect, the conclusion is only as good as the assumptions. And you didn't reason those, did you.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
