Not only did it come to life, but it came to life and began thinking, talking, and having sex.Why the heck do I have to believe such nonsense?

For the life of me, I just can't get myself to believe that, even if I tried. I just don't understand how naturalism/atheism is a more reasonable position than theism.Thankfully we don't believe that either.
But christianity does believe dust suddenly came to life, began talking, and having sex by magic of sky daddy.

I just don't have enough faith to be an atheist.
