I am not sure either way. I don't, not believe in god, but I also don't believe a god exists. It is the only honest position one can take when faced with a total lack of evidence for a claim. And this is the position of most atheists.

If you have never sat on a chair because you have been told since birth that chairs aren't for sitting on and that they won't hold your weight, that is indoctrination.
