I respectfully disagree. You may of course believe as you wish.
My opinion is formed by the evidence I see around me and there is none that convinces me it is very likely that there is a god.
And if after my death I'm proven to be mistaken, I'll ask god why he allows so much suffering in this world. Why he let's innocent people starve or wither away while some evil men appear to have all the luck in the world.
I'll ask him why he created man imperfect and than demanded of his creation to be perfect only to punish them by throwing man out of the garden of Eden while he must've known beforehand man would eat the fruit of knowledge.
I'll ask him why he insists on us believing in him and him alone based on poor evidence and demanding from us to love him and promising us an eternity of torture in hell if we don't comply.
How are these qualities of a caring and loving god I ask you? They seem more to be the ravings of a mad man.
I believe god is created by man and not visa versa. And that this idea of god has been used as an excuse to exert power over other people trough centuries. I personally am done with that. I'm done with god. I don't believe. And that doesn't make me a bad person. And I encourage anyone who has doubts about the story that is spun by priests and prophets to question those tales and to look further. Religion stifles critical thinking and I say cast it off like you cast off the believe in Santa Claus, the Tooth-fairy and unicorns. Oh wait, scrap that last parts. Unicorns are real! As for the rest, be free of that mental prison for it is nothing but a detriment to yourself and to society.
With respect,
