Is belief in God a choice
#86
RE: Is belief in God a choice
How is belief the default? You honestly think that if you let children grow up without any understanding of religion or god, they would still believe?

God has to be taught, Christianity has to be taught. Non-belief is the default position of everything and anything (be it child, flower, or tree) because none of these things have any idea what God is, so they cannot possibly believe in them.
