1.) When exactly does an infant baby deny God?
2.) When does an infant baby disbelieve in God?
3.) If an infant baby is not aware of God, how can it disbelieve?
If we are born atheist, how did the very first living human know how to pronounce the word, "God?" You are suggesting the mind is not aware of God, but Science has confirmed, we have the "God-idea" implanted in our brain? Is this correct?
So, how did it get there, and who put it there? Did it get there by chaotic accident? As so many atheists claim that's how life started.
God is always there. It's not until we reach a certain age that we understand him.
We are taught about God's existence, but that doesn't mean we have to believe in him. So, the "kids are forced to believe" arguement is nonsense! If God's existence is taught to our children, then who taught the very first living people about God? God himself?
