I'm really not sure what to say, I feel like either you have intentionally skipped the point I was making twice or we are on completely different wavelengths.
The points are these:
That the starting point of your 'knocking' idea is flawed just by the fact with people like myself their can be no sincere starting point. Although my parents were slightly religious it was not a thing I was ever brought up around so has never crossed my mind. Actually being a believer in your god is as alien to me as being a Scientologist probably is to you.
2nd Even if there was a starting point, it is clear that the idea is circular in that if it fails you try again until it works. Knowing the way in which humans work, trying to force an ideology in that way could work for anything regardless of wither it is correct or not. I challenge you to the same technique but for Allah, you can't tell me it doesn't work because in that case you just clearly haven't done it correctly.

If you want to know more the answers of who God is, starts there.I've read the bible, I actually did religious studies as one of my choices in school and college. Both times I studied Judaism and Christianity. If I learned anything it is that the bible is vague enough that it can mean just about anything you need it too.
Have you ever seen the book of Eli?
Its funny I have no idea if that film was meant to be for or against religion. Perhaps both.
