  Btw, I don't know if you have noticed, but I have never stated what
I believe in. For all you know, I could even be an atheist. I do believe
that even atheists can have a rational approach at things like the bible.
(And by rational I don't mean that they accept everything they read, but
that they don't try to distort what it says for their own motives.)

  That kind of expression makes it sound like "God" was an ideology, and
consequently different people could have different "Gods", ie. different
ideologies. (Maybe it is like that in reality, but that's not what eg.
christianity is about.)
