Haha, I would suggest that one requires belief to understand belief. Just like someone who has never been high, or someone who has never been drunk, cannot hope to be an expert on marijuana or alcohol. Understanding requires experience, and a logical interpretation of that experience.
Which is my primary reason for belief in God. I have experienced things which correspond to my own understanding of God, and others' as well. The Bible is a reference point, a documentation of these lessons as the people who experienced them understood what they were.
The fact that other stories and tales document these same moral concepts is even more corroboration for me.
