Quick Poll - Do you believe in God?

[Jericho]

There was a long period in my life where I did, in fact, believe in God.

I feel as though I am one of the lucky ones that didn't have parents that thrust religion onto me as a child. Yes, we went to church every now and again, and I went to Bible camp more than once throughout my youth. However, my parents were never the ones to make me pray or make me sing or anything like that. As I grew older, they respected my decision to not attend church. Perhaps they knew that I was beginning to doubt religion, or they may have thought that I was just too lazy to go (which is more likely).

Now that I am an independent young adult and have had more time to question and ponder what it is that I believe, I have concluded that I do not believe that god (or gods) exist. I am not one of those that will try and deconvert my peers, or get angry when they forsake me for my lack of belief. I have found that at the end of the day, people are always going to be intolerant of what and who I am. If that is the case, then they do not deserve to call themselves my friends or to even take up my time with useless conversation. But I digress.

So to answer this question simply...no, I do not believe in god.
