Reasons for belief
#42
RE: Reasons for belief
The answer is very simple. I gather you are a Christian. Why don't you believe in Islam, Mormonism, Hinduism, or Buddhism? My guess is because you find them all inherently unbelievable. Looked at from outside, Christianity is as inherently unbelievable.

No one has ever invented a consistent, demonstrable god, whose existence makes any real change in the world. Thus god does not even rise to the level of a hypothesis, let alone a theory.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
