Some people believe in God, others find it hard to believe no matter how hard they try to. Others believe in alien life, some don't Believe what you want while others can't no matter if the evidence is in front of them. Those people were destined to believe while others are destined not to believe. What's wrong here? Is there a hidden reason for all this?

Yes, we are predestined to believe or not to believe.

You're looking at an entire human race of people that have a "free will" to reject God, and nothing else. That isn't predestination to not believe, it's merely our own lives tainted with sin from conception on. If someone "finds it hard to believe", so does the rest of the world save for the grace of God.

Read Ephesians 1 and 2- those who are saved in Jesus Christ were pre destined. And look at John 16- Jesus says that HE chooses us- and mentions this twice. Not only that but John 6:44 says "No one can come to Me unless the Father draws him and I will raise him up on the last day" --so yes there is a reason for it all- For God says in Proverbs 16:4 "God has made everything for a purpose, even the wicked for the day of evil"
-But let me also say we should be sharing the gospel to everyone because we do not know who God will draw and it is what He wills of us- to share His truth in love.

God does not want any man to perish. Jesus came to save all mankind. Some people just get hard hearted about things of God, the more they hear the harder they get. That is because God gave all men free will to chose, they chose not to believe. Others will soften their hearts to God and become believers.

Yes, the hidden reason is that you are completely wrong. People hopefully look at the evidence, and make of it what they will.

Yes there is predestination.
