Why do I believe? I don't have to guess at all.

Having evaluated all of the evidence available to me I have come to the inescapable conclusion that all religion is merely a fairy-tale concocted by ignorant humans in the distant past to explain and provide a rationale for their world. This has unfortunately been perpetuated by the all to human tendency to continue to believe something simply because that is what has "always" been belived.

Nice try.Remember,your brain is a reality generating device so don't get caught up in your delusions.Our attempts to explain lifes mysteries through myth-anthropy will not get you closer to the answer.Because you've always been this way doesn't provide an answer.
