How does one go from not being religious to being religious?
Specifically looking for people who have done it themselves. Explain your story, because I'm fascinated.

There is NO WAY one could possess the knowledge and understanding of there being no god as much as say... Richard Dawkins, and then legitimately become theistic. No one could logically conclude that. Most of these re-theists (if you will) are a little sceptical of god, yet have very little knowledge about scientific processes such as quantum mechanics or evolution. They can also simply be too scared to see a world without a happy ending. So therefor they quickly relapse and become religious again. Their atheistic views were never really that strong to begin with.
