I was always kinda skeptical but the event that triggered my way out was when I asked my mom how can God expect people, who were raised with other religions, to believe in him instead when they simply have no idea. She said they know about God and it’s their own fault for not believing in him. And that for me was not logical because I knew from my own experience that I only believed in God because that’s all I knew.
But it took a while for me to completely stop believing in any deity or whatever supernatural power because I kept looking for reasons why we exist. Now I don’t care for that. Sure the Big Bang is mysterious and we might never solve it but there is no sense in making things up either. Everything else can be explained by science so let’s just go with that.
If the Christian God wants me to believe in him, he should stop being so vague and contradicting. Turn the moon into cheese. Pluck a mountain out of the ground and float it in the sky. Whatever, he is almighty, he should do almighty things.
I remember posing this question to my mum and dad. Their answer was “that’s what missionaries are for”. Honestly they should’ve just said they didn’t know.

Bad luck for the people not being visited by the missionaries!
Similar here, region locked gods lol.
“He” can’t do that because “he” doesn’t exist. Just like the other 5000 or so gods that humans have invented over the millennia.
Thanks, that’s what I obviously concluded too.
