According to Christianity, God wants something. Since God's supposedly omnipotent, what God wants, God gets. He wants people to believe in Him. The simple way to accomplish that is to simply reveal Himself, to everyone, not just some shepherd in the desert via a burning bush, or some guy who got lost in the desert and ate some ergot. But does He do that? No. He hides from the world. He reveals Himself to only a few, some of them obvious charlatans, then goes into hiding for millennia. On top of that the only record He leaves of His revelations is an ancient text of dubious authenticity. To question the text makes one a "heretic" and a "reprobate." To not question the text one has to be gullible or an idiot or both.
Conclusion, God wants only gullible idiots in heaven.
If God truly wants people, other than gullible idiots, to believe in Him then it's obvious that His plan is terribly flawed.
So let me rephrase the question. If God really wanted me to believe, why did He not make me a gullible idiot?

You'll find out just how "flawed" when you breathe your last.

P.S. And what makes you think you're not a "gullible idiot"? You believe in evolution and a big firecracker that blew up somewhere, etc., right?
Thus far, it appears that God has appointed you for your doom (1Pet 2:8; Jude 4; Rom 9:22)
