Atheists many times give reasons why religions make no sense.
And yet - if you drop an Atheist at 2am in the middle of an African Jungle with lions and Hyenas - the Atheist will call out for help from God. IMO
Op is probably long gone!
I think it woul be best to figure out exactly why people believe what they do.
As I said in my post # 78 - we are born with a natural inclination towards recognizing and believing in God. God created us that way.
It is an inherited ability to recognize the existence of God. However our upbringing and certain aspects of environmental effect can block this ability and stop it from manifesting or growing.
It could be blocked until you find yourself in a tough predicament (on a plane about to crash, lost in the middle of a Jungle etc.) - and then it unleashes again! The words - "God if you are out there - please help" - comes out of the mouth!
So, why people believe in God?
Some believe because they are born into it, some believe because they found themselves in tough positions and sought, some believe because they are smart and realize there must be a creator
BUT all believe because they are born with natural inclination to believe.
The ones who don't believe - are broken!
