I respect what you believe in. Just curious. same thing as you're curious of some other people that believes in God.

Nothing bad has happened. I'm not angry with anyone. I just have no reason to believe.
I have been an atheist for as long as I can remember. About two years ago I gave religion an honest chance. 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. I was sincere in this attempt.
That was over two years ago. Today I am a stronger, more active atheist than I ever. I simply couldn't force myself to believe in something that I just don't believe in. Try it sometime. See if you can do it.
Why do so many people think that atheists could believe in God if they only tried? Have you ever considered the fact that we are unable to feel any differently? For me, anyway, it's not a choice, it's simply who I am. No threats of hell, no promises of heaven have ever changed my mind. I am content to let it be.

I am a believer now.
Just not the God the Christians believe in.
Prayer is a illusion, God isn't interested in your personnel life.

God - as described by men - is a comical fallacy.
If there actually exists some kind of deity, guaranteed men have no clue about its characteristics.

Why must you ask a question that had been asked here a thousand times? You want the answer to this question, look in answered questions and/or type it in the search bar, I'm tired of typing the paragraph.

Comparative Theology 101. Every religion borrows bits and pieces from every other.
