    No.

    You are welcome to criticise my religion , but you have not earned the right to criticise why I follow it.

    Your petty insults remind me of all the other religionists in here, only less effectual.
    At least they aspire to worship the creator rather than the created.

    The thing is apathist, you are probably a nice guy (or gal) with good intentions, but you lack the rationality of the atheists and the spiritual pedigree of the sincere religionists. You peddle a shallow, muddled, dope-fuelled vacuous ideology which is nothing more that you trying to appear slightly superior by adopting certain labels.

    Yes through critical thinking , by getting into the spirit of other's post.
    This can be demonstrated by different means.
    You adhere to the Christian label you should cop what comes with that

    You're reasons are secret, got it. So why should I give your religion respect? What reasons should I have for believing in what you preach.

    Why should I believe there is a creator?

    It seems per physics math and observations that our universe began as a singularity. Physics math is quiet about how the singularity began existence, but conservation laws (and intuition) suggest there would be a mega-verse already existing, so it is turtles all the way down.

    Or maybe the fundamental constants (more physics math) change over time in one way or the other for this reason or that, so that actually our universe is eternal.

    But kelly, the mere fact that we don't know 'where it all came from' is not resolved by resorting to faith belief in ancient myths.

    Again, why should I believe there is a creator. And more: even if there is a creator, why should I believe your preferred god is the correct choice.

    But I'm not seeking your respect apathist.

    I regard you as one of the posters here who contributes virtually nothing of value, either spirituality, intellectually, emotionally or humourously.

    For some of the same reasons you believe nature to be a "mother".
