    So you've gone from "just because" to a circular argument. Nice.

    Here's a question I ask people who ask me "Why do I not believe in [insert their god(s) here]?" I ask them what it would take for them to disbelieve in god. A lot of them have never even given that a thought and it sometimes makes for a good conversation.

    It is my opinion that religion is from the infancy of our intellect and the sooner we discard with it, the better. I believe those of us who are not blinded by divine light are better equipped to see the world as it really is and are able to appreciate the wonder of existence in a much more profound manner.
