I'm aware of the fact that just because my parents are Muslim doesn't mean that Islam has to be right. Of course not. I have studied the religion by myself and found that Islam has the most sensible concept of God out of all the other religions. The Oneness of God in Islam is one of those things which made me believe in it along with the history of Islam and the life of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and especially the uniqueness of the Quran. There is more proof for Islam because it is the last religion and many of the historical events are well-documented. I presented my arguments for Islam in many other places in the forum. So, even if I was born into a different family or in a different culture then it's also possible that I would've converted to Islam (but again, I'm not sure about that).
How can you be so dense? All the other kids from other religions who grow up to be the same religion as their parents will say the same thing you do...and you will say they are wrong. They will say the same too you. Your religion is mostly chosen for you at birth by your parents. Very few people who fool for religion are even more stupid to do so when they are older after escaping indoctrination from their parents when they were young.
