I think it is conceivable that humans have not evolved to a high enough state to sense with the mind, all that exists.
I think those, that have faith in the existence God, are gifted. And many things, that happen over the course of their lives, tend to bolster that belief.

We are able to replicate out of body experiences, a deep spiritual experience with a helmet using magnets to various parts of the brain.
Darren Brown a famous UK magician and skeptic was able to give an atheist a very powerful religious experience, we are clearly creatures of a mind that is capable of these experiences without any outside intelligence, in fact some neuroscientists believe we evolved this religious experience as a part of evolutionary pressures, that there is a benefit of belief in the ancient hunter gatherer times.
