You need some reason to believe God exists though. Everyone has their own reasons.
And I personally know that the only valid reason is evidence. Because if there's an actual valid reason to believe God exists then that would count as evidence.
And if you are addressing the question: "Does God actually exist?" what you NEED is a valid reason(s) to believe God exists. What you NEED is evidence.
And 'going with the trend' or what people believe in 'your area' or 'surroundings' is certainly NOT evidence (NE included, i.e.: a good reason(s)) - and NOT a good reason for believing in God. Regardless of whether some may think it is or not, or whether they're simply influenced by it. That doesn't stop it from not being a good reason, not being (NE included) evidence.
