3. The person and teachings of Jesus are compelling and my personal experience affirms the truth of many of his teachings. 
4. While I grew up in a Christian home and don't have a "drastic change" story, I have directly heard hundreds (if not more) testimonies how God has changed people's lives in drastic ways. 
5. There are no successful arguments that show that believing in God is irrational, so I can't see myself changing my mind.

Belief in God is irrational by definition. It requires faith, and faith is the antithesis of reason.

Do you believe that human reason is reliable? Can you use reason to prove it?
