Is it OK to Want Reasons for Believing in God?

It’s curious that in most areas of life we are told that we should follow the evidence to know what we should do or what we should believe.  Will this vaccine work to stop the virus?  Wait for the scientific evidence, we are told.  Who should I vote for in the election?  Wait until you hear both sides of the debate, so you can make a fully informed decision, it is suggested.  In fact, on nearly every issue under the sun, we are told to make decisions based on what is the most reasonable to believe or to do.  Except in the area of religion, we are sometimes told.  In religion we aren’t supposed to ask questions, we should suppress our doubts, we should just have faith rather than raise all kinds of objections.  Really?  Well, why is that?  Why is religion exempted from the general rules of believing what is reasonable to think is true and from acting on what is good for human beings?
