Sadley,

What "brings debate" into it is someone questioning and dismissing another's beliefs. Just because you do not believe God is knowable doesn't mean someone else can't or at least gain solace from the notion.

John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Therein lies the hope to withstand all life can throw at us, even death. Whether we believe it or not, it is unarguably a grand and comforting idea.
