Why introduce the extremely problematic concept of "god" when you've already justified being good without it?
Except that, if there is a God, you are not introducing anything at all. You are simply oblivious. Intentionally so. If there is a creator, and you don't believe that he exists because of a lack of acceptable evidence, it doesn't make him cease to exist.
If there is a God, and he/it created us, then there is, of course, no way to completely understand everything that we would like to, no way to have all the answers that have ,so far, gone unanswered. He created us how he wanted to, not how we wanted him to. As, humans, we cannot be all-knowing.
The ant under the magnifying glass has no idea of the vastness of the world around it, much less who or what is holding the magnifying glass. It may not even believe in magnifying glasses (or, indeed, even come close to understanding the concept of something so far removed from it's daily exsistence) until the day it is fried to death by a bored 7-year old boy with a runny nose.
If we are under the magnifying glass, so to speak, and we don't believe it because we can't see it or it can't prove it, it doesn't mean it isn't there. And to disrespect or be condescending towards others, or assume a vague sense of superior thought process over those who believe, is just as ignorant as those who "guarantee" the existence of God.
