I have been an atheist for as long as I can remember. About two years ago my hubby was thinking about getting involved with Christianity. I knew that we would have a hard time making our marriage work, having such different beliefs, so I tried to see things his way.
I read and studied the Bible. I "talked" to God and asked for some kind of sign. I said that if He was there, that I was open and ready to accept him, and that I would like to believe in Him.
That was over two years ago. Today I am a stronger, more active atheist than I was then. I simply couldn't force myself to believe in something that I just don't believe in.
Why do so many people think that people could believe in God if they only tried? Have you ever considered the fact that we atheists are unable to feel any differently?
PS -- the hubby studied a lot too; he believes in God still, but is not a Christian.
