Why does everyone believe in God

Raised in church? Why do you believe

Most people believe because they are afraid of not believing. Fear of the unknown. Some believe because they have gone through something and think they pulled through not by their our strength and fortitude but because of something outside of themselves. Others because it gives them hope because to believe we really are here for nothing but to do the song and dance of life and death can be very daunting and dreadful. Like why even bother. I don’t know what I believe at this point. How I see it is we are all micros from a whole macro that’s been placed her to have a human experience whichever way we decide that goes. There’s consequences for every action whether good or bad. And this knowing is enough for me. I don’t need to go into who or what the macro is because I don’t know and I’m not going to drive myself crazy anymore trying to figure out which theory makes more sense. All I know is I give thanks and gratitude to nature for all that I can see and benefit from. I hope all is well with you!
@NattybyNeter Hi Natty. May I share this with you?

With all respect I was a Christian and I don’t mean the ones that’s are playing church. So I’m well aware of that share. But thanks and peace be with you @LadyGrace

The truth. Have you ever studied anything outside of Christianity? Do you know the origin? @LadyGrace
@NattybyNeter I have studied all of that and Jesus I don't believe is a liar. But I respect that you do have a different belief and I won't press the subject.
@NattybyNeter You talk about Christianity. People can say what they want but Christianity originated with Christ. That's where it comes from. Jesus taught about His Father in Heaven. It's not about religion or the different belief systems in the world. Salvation has nothing to do with those. Jesus came to save everyone in the world, regardless of what denomination they belong to. Religion did not die on the cross for our sins. Jesus did.
Okay so you’re saying you’ve never really looked into it then. Gotcha. Be well ❤️@LadyGrace
@NattybyNeter no it's you who put those words in my mouth. Don't assume. I told you I have looked into all of them and I have.
@NattybyNeter Do you know what Christian means? It means follower of Christ. Not any religion. Jesus is not our co-pilot, He is our Lord and Savior. Christianity teaches that God is a Trinity, and the three persons of theTrinity are God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Three persons in one essence. Christ means "the anointed one". 1 John 5:7
