    I'm here, as is the world I live in. That either happened by accident, or it was by creation. I prefer the latter as it makes more sense.

    The start of faith is the testimony of our ancestors. But at some point, faith can turn into knowledge.

    I don't think they do. Some however 'believe' in god.

    I was convinced by the evidence.

    The claim that there is no evidence is literally the textbook definition of an argument from ignorance fallacy.

    Source(s): “Argument from ignorance (from Latin: argumentum ad ignorantiam), also known as appeal to ignorance (in which ignorance represents "a lack of contrary evidence") is a fallacy in informal logic. It asserts that a proposition is either true or false because of lack or absence of evidence or proof to the contrary.” Wikipedia - Argument from ignorance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_ignora...

    Because we are the creation, we are to worship and obey God until the afterlife. He is the Care taker and the Creator. That's why. Believing in the Creator is the source and praying or worshiping Him is the core, the very core of the soul and heart. This life is only a field test to help prepare for a better afterlife. We don't live forever on this earth, we all return to God at some point whether people believe in Him or not. We are His property. The Creator is the Inheritor of all and has total ownership over His creations.
