Actually, I think Dean's reasoning for not believing in God isn't so much that he hasn't seen God and thus, doesn't believe. I think it's more like what he said to Cas last night: If God exists, why is there so much evil all around? I don't think Dean CAN believe, because if he does, he has no explanation for why there's so much evil and why God hasn't stepped in to help at some point. It's easier for Dean to believe God is either dead or doesn't exist at all than it is for him to accept that God is out there and just hasn't interfered or helped for whatever reason.
