Question for the Former Theists

RE: Question for the Former Theists

The belief of punishment in Hell for eternity is probably the thing that made me doubt the most.

Also, I used to read books on physics and cosmology and related topics which made me question what kind of a role a god might play in all of this.

Those things and a couple of other things still cause me to doubt sometimes ... yet, the core god-belief of Islam never leaves my heart.
