Aha! And why aren't you doing the same sort of research on why people believe in Jesus, before you take it as evidence that he's real?
Quote:On your second point: But that was before people could research anything scientific in an instant. But even with all this technology and knowledge, most still believe there's a God.
Yep, and there's still a flat earth society too. The fact that we can avail ourselves of knowledge doesn't mean that everyone will, or that they'll accept it even if they do. People aren't perfectly rational.
Besides, there's still no smoking gun, definitive proof that there is no god, and there might never be, since proving a negative is really hard. So the fact that we have science doesn't mean god has been disproved; however, the time to believe in something is when there's evidence, not before. There's no positive evidence for god, so why offer it belief any more than we would another idea with no evidence behind it, like that airplanes are actually demons in disguise?
Quote:On your third point: Well you think the rest are wrong.
Not really. I do think they haven't given sufficient evidence to believe that they're right yet, though.
