Some choose not to because they think they are wiser than God. Others can not find the time or have no need for Him.
1 Co 1:18-24; 3:18-20
Those who are conscious of their spiritual need are they who want to know and find God.-Matt 5:3

Ok, I don't curse. Do you really want to know why I am not Christian?I was Christian.
When I was 9 years old I started hearing a male voice in my head, playing games with me. I liked it.
When I was 10, I named him 'Little Man' and he started making bets with me.
I was scared and started to pray. I sang little songs that I made up to the God in the Bible, along with the lesser doxology and asked for Jesus to help me.
Little Man made bets with me that if I couldn't do something right, or quickly enough, I'd have to cut myself.
Mama hid all the knives.
I prayed and cried for Jesus.
When I was 11-12 Little Man displayed gruesome bloody images before me, and I was terrified, but I only saw more. I was told to pray by my family and friends. I did.
When I was 13, I started having major panic attacks, and said prayers to Christ and read the Bible, starting from Genesis.
When I was 14, Little Man took over, and I sang the lesser doxology as I cut my arms and legs and sobbed and ruined my bed with blood.
I prayed and begged.
A few days later I was taken to the hospital, afetr my parents found the cuts that I covered with sweaters and my bedsheets, with a cross still hanging aroung my neck.
After getting out of the hospital, doped up on anti-psychotics (an attempt to rid me of Little Man) and mood stabilizers, I decided to research some Indian history for a cousin.
Redaing about Kali and seeing a 'formed' picture of Her made me feel like that one hand of hers that was gesturing 'Do not fear', was gesturing at me. I am Her daughter; I should not fear.
Hinduism did not make sense to me, and I began researching other religions. Paganism was home - the way the Earth is supposed to be and born to be. Born from Kali Ma.
I replaced my cross with a Kali statue pendant.
I have been studying the occult ever since.
Why don't I beleive? Because I spent my life praying, and six years in dire need. Blood and tears and misery. Ma protects me and gives me strength. I am not afraid of Little Man anymore, though he is still there.
I am on less medication, and have motivation to to live again. To be the person was born to be.
Vote my answer down if you like, but this was MY LIFE.

The Bible say even that demons believe in god so does the devil . A lot of people claim to believe in God but show no evidence of it . And maybe they are saved but they are like an apple tree that doesn't bear any apples. The Bible says and he will try ever man's works with fire and some will burn but they would be saved as if by fire. Which means their rewards are going to be mighty small. But a lot more don't really believe just when it's to their advantage.

It is our natural human inclination to swear to express anger, pain, or even during regular conversation. This is mostly due to the high exposure to profanity that a lot of people have been subject to hear from outsiders, friends, or even family. People do not think much of it because the standard of decency in life his diminished so much and is so low at this time, that it is almost acceptable and meaningless. They do not realize God is always around, hearing every word from your mind and knowing every thought you have.

Well, whose beliefs can a person trust?
Your beliefs could be just as wrong as anybody else's.
What you're really asking is "what is truth" - and truth is ultimately what you can prove to yourself.
If you simply "believe" without seeking proof in life, then you might as well fall for someone else's superstition for all the good it might do you.
And when somebody doesn't believe your truth, you just have to accept that.

because most people are raised by believing in god. but there are always those who are taught to only believe in that that they can prove or the things that they can see them selves and god isn't really something that you can prove there is no proff that a GOD really exists it is plain old BELIEF!!! thats is basically why some people don't believe i am partially part of those people.

Because JC is not their lord and savior. They are not truly born again. They are false believers who have not yet received the holy spirit.

Because God has given them the free will to choose whether or not they will believe.

There are some who believe in god but never put their faith in him. Then there are those who believe in God and absolutely put their faith in Him. I not only believe in God, but believe his Word is true and that His Son is my Savior. He is real to me, every day.

Then God shouldn't create those kinds of words.
