Well, I'm starting to believe in god and have faith because I can't contemplate existence or why I exist. It keeps me up at night just thinking about the universe and all the forms of life we have on just this planet. However, I don't agree with most things that are in the bible, they are outdated stories. I like the messages that I hear in church such as being selfless, forgiving, and helping others and that's what I try to do.

No offence given of course.
