Default What If There Is a God?

Aren't most of the Atheist attacks on Religion based on the assumption that there is no God? What if there is a God? What happens to their attacks under that assumption? Suppose there is a God and we have been searching for ways to understand him through history in our various religions? Of course we haven't come to much of a consensus yet. But wouldn't that be expected in the situation?

I don't think anyone claims a perfect understanding of God. If they do I think they can be criticized for that. But when trying to understand an infinite God with our finite abilities to understand wouldn't it be expected that we would be where we are right now? With a lack of consensus?

So if attacks on Religion evaporate under the assumption that a God does exist, aren't such attacks being made under the presumption that God doesn't exist? And if so, isn't that just proslytizing the belief that there is no God?
