Never ever underestimate the amazing dumbness level of humankind.

Research shows that we have the innate (ie. without being externally influenced) belief that there is a higher power. So we are socialized/influenced into NOT believing in God.

Atheism and secularism are big now but this only started to be so in the recent hundred years.

Personally I find my religion logically making sense more than what atheistic ideologies bring forth and their misuse of science illiteracy.

The scripture is preserved and I had the chance to learn the original language which allows to assess it firsthand.

People can have a rich spiritual life and not believe in religion.
