RE: List of reasons to believe God exists?
Sean Carroll isn't exactly that well known outside of a modestly sized circle and I only know about him because of reading Edward Fesser.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Not that I'm aware of.  I'm just making fun of the name dropping contest going on here.  It's quite silly.
