I don't believe that gods exist, that's it, I can't decide that from 9:00 on Monday morning I will believe, it just doesn't work like that. I don't believe in gods for the same reason I don't believe in the tooth fairy or in pixies, if you put a gun to my head I will be very convincing in saying "yes, I believe now!" but it won't really be true, you would need to convince me, people have been trying to do that for the last 68 years, not convinced yet!
I already said I agree with that. Changing your beliefs comes from a succession of small decisions to shift your perspective. I don't want to do preaching here as it seems they have rules against it, but you can easily find tips and long religious exhortations on how to feel grateful to God about good things you have in your life.
