If you are aware of some better explanations, then how about sharing them?
OK fair enough.
What exactly do you want explaining? Rational reasons for believing?
I learned of information on the subject and assessed it critically over a long period of time. I scrutinised people and conflicting theories on the subject. I trusted the information to be true enough to act upon it. This has been the standard accepted path to belief for centuries. Nothing I believe hinders or opposes scientific fact. I remain as skeptical as ever on all subjects especially faith and belief, as I understand I must be.
