everyone is born atheist. No one is born with knowledge of God. Belief in God is TAUGHT. The reason they are not born agnostic, as someone below me suggests, is because they do not even know of the concept. For example, you do not believe in flying invisible pink teddy bears that have red horns, breathe fire, and suck your blood at night. You have to be made aware of the concept before you can say you are undecided. So by default, you do not believe in them if you have never even heard of them.

People arent born atheist because they are not capable of denying God. Once they grow and are confronted with the idea of God, then they have to make a choice. Many call that the age of accountability when kids know about sin and God and start forming their attitude towards them.

Everyone is given a measure
of faith at birth. This actually
prevents everyone from being
born an atheist.

And heres a piece of info that never made it into the bible The angel named Lucifer decided one day that he wanted to be seen as mighty as god and god knew his intentions and cast him out of heaven with the angels that followed him and cast him down upon the earth to dwell inside it for some thousand years....Sounds to me like he was set free at some point in time

Question supposes things not in evidence: that there is a god, and that there is a plan. There is no evidence to support either thesis.

Humans are naturally atheist. Religion is a societal control system that was later imposed on our species.

I still fail to see how people are born atheist.
People are born agnostic. Not sure. Not certain. Unknowing.

That is false logic.
All children are born with faith in God.
