I promise you that I am not consciously choosing to "deny the sunlight." I genuinely do not see it, and every attempt theists have made to show me it just comes across as irrational or baseless. I'm still waiting for one to demonstrate the existence or truth of what they're talking about, but it has yet to happen.
At this point, I'm starting to give up the search. I imagine if there really was good, demonstrable evidence for theism or the "Great Reality," it would have come up in a conversation by now. It hasn't. I just get nonsense.
You have to find a connection to God for yourself, no one else can do it for you. But it’s not so difficult, others have walked the path before you;
“Deep down in every man, woman, and child, is the fundamental idea of God. It may be obscured by calamity, by pomp, by worship of other things, but in some form or other it is there. For faith in a Power greater than ourselves, and miraculous demonstrations of that power in human lives, are facts as old as man himself.
We finally saw that faith in some kind of God was a part of our make up, just as much as the feeling we have for a friend. Sometimes we had to search fearlessly, but He was there. He was as much a fact as we were. We found the Great Reality deep down within us. In the last analysis it is only there that He may be found.”
