From this, I assume you mean that people are not supposed to doubt God. Most men of God in Scriptures went through moments and even long spells of doubt. And we know this because their doubts are recorded by either themselves or "friendly" witnesses to their doubt.
If God is who He is presented to be in the Bible, then arguing with Him is a futile exercise. It does not send anyone to Hell to argue, though. What is in question is trust. If you do not believe "in" God, you have no one to "believe," for believing is trusting.
There is not a dichotomy between faith and reason, for faith is presumption if it without reason. Trusting God requires more than "reason" but it is beyond a finite mind's ability on its own. All one can hope for is to be open to a greater intelligence than his own. We can question God all we want, but are we willing to accept the answers?
