I believe that our universe as we know it started with the "big bang." Although I of course do not know the intimate details and much is still not understood about it, I still believe in the general theory. That being said, I no longer believe in a supernatural god that created all things, simply based on the scientific evidence I've seen presented.
If I told myself that I wanted to believe in a god to go to heaven just in case, would that be cheating? If I WANTED to be a Christian but deep in my mind the evidence was telling me otherwise, how you do believe god would treat that?
This to me seems to be like taking a cookie and saying "I believe this is a healthy thing to eat." I, of course, know it is not based on evidence. I want it to be healthy though!
I'd like to hear some standpoints on this. Religious or not. Maybe some religious folks have talked to their leaders about this and have their opinions.
Thanks,
Zach
