Hopefully no one here will be angry at you for saying it, like they were with me for saying I'd believe this too if I was atheist.
Believing God so you can pretend facts are not what they are, but what you wish them to be, does the concept of god no credit, much less anyone who would embrace the concept of God for that reason.
I respect your views.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
