I suppose you mean the Abrahamic god as you are a christian.
So this means you reject Thor why would you do that? or Isis that is another god you presumably don't believe in. But these are old gods and be dismissed as just part of mankinds chldhood.
But what of Ganesha, Xenu and all the other gods still worshipped why don't you worship them?
The truth is we just believe in one god less than you do and given the number there are out there that makes you an almost Atheist.
When you realise why you reject all the other gods take a lot a your god and use the same reasoning on that.
You'll find its not so different.
On a personal note I have never believed in a god and have seen no reason to start.
The idea of god seems like a silly one to me and I struggle to understand how people can think there is even the slightest possibility of it being anything other than a myth.
Yes, I do believe in the God of the Bible. Though it wasn't what I was asking, it doesn't matter whether it's my God or any other god. I was simply asking what's the logical reasoning not to believe in "A" God?
(You stated that you see no reason to start; what's that reason then?)
On the side note: "One less god?" I'm sorry but are we talking about the same atheist term? I thought (correct me if so) Atheist believe in (no) god for the lack of evidence for such a deity? In saying that, I can't be an "almost atheist" because I do believe in one and deny the others because they're false. (Well, that's my belief and I can understand you might find that silly, stupid, bigotted, ignorant etc etc)
