You didn’t choose to disagree. You’re only disagreeing because you’re being forced to. Or something stupid like that.

What?

I grew up believing in God. It was the status quo. I got older and seeked to strengthen my faith by learning things that dispelled any creeping doubts or holes. In doing that i only learned more and more that made believing in something i dont think is true impossible.

Id ask what personal experience beyond a warm feeling in your tummy while praying or "i prayed and then later on this thing happened that was very similar to the subject matter of my prayer". If you truly have some experience where, while awake and sober, God's booming voice bellowed down to you or he appeared to you in the woods or something then bully for you. I never had that after 21 years of faith.
