Humans (obviously) have an inherent want for the answer to major mysteries, like the famed beginning of life. Thus, early humans found an answer by saying these god(s) character(s) were the answer. Simply put for me, I have come to accept I may not know the answer in my life time, and I do not care, therefore, I have no reason to believe in any god(s).

One thing that I've been taught ((and after really considering it, I do find it to be true, you may [and probably will] see it as otherwise)), is when you think about it, why the heck would humans invent a god/religion that sets the standards for their lives so ridiculously high and basically tells them that the absolute best they could offer their god of their own merits was utter crap? Humans aren't exactly the types to write a book that spins a good deal of things to show how horrible they look. Or to invent a god that sees them in a similar way.

We're fine with debates here; if that changes anything. If you just don't want to debate personally, then that's cool too.

I do not believe in something without scientific backing, and there is too much in line with God's word and too little in line with Evolution for me to think otherwise.
