Is the question of God's existence based on an individual's reliance on faith or reason? Or something else?

It does seem to come down to that usually, but that seems to be only because no one seems willing to admit that it is unknowable. I tend to side with atheists in such arguments because I recognize that there is NO proof whatsoever for a God, but I also believe there is one. I don't know it, and I don't claim to, but I have a strong belief taht God exists. It isn't rational, but it doesn't preclude rationality either because I recognize that I could be wrong.

So I take it you have objectively validated, testable, repeatable, empirical information for the life of God that confirms any claims you desire to make approximately reported God's attributes and historic previous; and which you're prepared to post this information to work out overview and scrutiny? If no longer, you haven't any longer something yet faith and that's a unfavorable reason to have faith or declare something. Edit: you have to be conscious that I published this earlier you lower back-peddled from being a theist. no longer that i could assume you to appreciate that as I checked your Q&A and found out you're basically a troll without an clever theory on your head.

some people will argue that yes, it's just faith versus reason. but i feel like my faith, christianity, is based on reason. i think 'the god debate' is really a question of ignorance versus seeing the light.

Of Course, God's Reason Vs Atheist faith

No. Without reason, exploring and studying things like theology would be impossible.
Christians employ reason in their arguments and studies, but to us, it is not the soul source of truth.
How about if an atheist saw what could only be a miracle? Would denying God afterwards be irrational?

Basically, it is. Some try to say reason tells one gods exist, but mine tells me all gods are fantasies.

It is reason versus believing what your parents/peers tell you.

Far more dangerous.
It's one of emotion vs. logic as the tool by which one seeks truth.
Those who seek truth by emotion are by definition illogical and irrational.
