I don't understand why you require it or why you might think that anyone should have to provide it.
It seems to me that the issue isn't so much that you have to provide anything, but that you won't or can't. Apart from that, I'm sure you can understand why such statements would be of interest.
Why is it an issue if I choose to keep the reasons for my beliefs to myself? To be blunt - it's nobody else's business.
It's only the atheists who seem to care why someone has a belief other than theirs. I think about the various church people who show up at my door wanting talk about their views. I simply say "Thanks anyway but I have my own beliefs" and they just go away.
They don't demand that I answer why. They don't suggest that, if I believe in something other than what they believe, there must be something wrong with me or that I'm incapable of rational thought. My guess is that if one of the zealous atheists showed up I'd be having the police remove them from my property and I'd be considering charges.
And, no, I don't understand why anyone else would care what I believe or why.
The only thing I wonder about in all of this is: What other freedoms do the atheists think should not exist?
