I've never seen a satisfying answer to why people believe in god/gods.

The answers given always leave me open mouthed going 'huh'.

They all seem to boil down to they believe because they want to and because they want to they can see 'evidence' for god/gods.

Being godless heathens we just cant see the truth, if only we'd look with better eyes we'd see it too.

I'm winding myself up here so I'll take a few deep breaths and calm down.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
