Did your parents give you choice of whether or not to like them/love them? In fact they couldn't make you like them/love them. But most people love their parents.

Quote:One has the evidence and so the data whilst the other only has storys and no data at all. This is why I am not religious. I need data and religion doesn't have that data. I doubt religion, I doubt god's existance and I question it heavily. I dismissed religious claims and turned towards science, Logic and reason. An atheist I remain.Do you know much about why so many scientists believe in God? Have you looked into it at all or read anything about it? There is a question that physicists are struggeling with now regarding the fine tuning of the constants of nature. Are you familiar with it?
