I can't remember what exactly I believed when I was a rugrat - I'm sure I believed in Santa then, too. But I know once I started Sunday school, I never really bought all that stuff. When I was 11, I simply refused to go to church anymore, told my folks I didn't believe any of that religious stuff and it was a waste of my time. Mom didn't like it, but she didn't pressure Dad to make me go. After she died, he turned out to be a closet agnostic, so I imagine that's why he didn't force me.

Why would you think that age has anything to do with your believing in God. No matter what your age you should never loose your faith... And who says there was never a santa. Look up Chris Kringle on the Net!!!!! Was he real or not???? Let me know. I'm 53 and I still believe....

Believing in Jesus as a human being is the best knowledge you can have in this lifetime. About the "Divine Jesus" that the church created.... darn, I guess just about the time you can figure out that Santa is a fantasy.

25 for me, but it's different for everyone. The point is to wake up no matter the age. Better earlier so you can see how great life without Jesus is.

I was 4 when I remember starting to disbelieve what I was being taught. That's when I started to listen carefully to people around me and to the bible stories I had been told.
It all got a little more sophisticated as I grew older.

When you meet a person, its really hard to say that they don't exist.
Meet Jesus and then you can always turn to Him.
Remember its the people who haven't met Jesus who deny His existence. I can understand why they don't believe in Him. You don't know what you don't know!!
Don't go for religion, go for relationship!!

honey, if you can ask that type question you don't believe in Him now. What is that to say how old you should be to stop believing. I'll believe until I see Him in eternity. To each it's own.

i think at any age that they start asking that question and are self confident enough to handle it. 5 might be a little young.
