Atheists... why do you believe that God doesn't exist?

People have to be first convinced of the truth of something before they are able to trust in it. Because that's what faith is: TRUST in INFORMATION that you understand to be TRUE.

Faith in some invisible god, which can only be experienced subjectively, means that you also have to have faith in your ability to correctly interpret every unusual and abnormal sensory experience which your brain processes, without error.

Until you can justify the faith you have in your ability to accurately discern legitimate meaning in your subjective experiences, you can't offer any honest rational or logical justification in your faith you have in your god.
