This is a perfectly good thread doing what I wished a good deal more threads did and
ASK people what there experiences are.
If you want to trash talk, go do it in another thread.

But you said you wanted to become a theist because of people preaching to you. If not 'social pressure', then what motivated you to listen to them?
Originally posted by RBHILLI wasn't asking how you became a Christian, I am asking why you wanted to become a Christian/Theist. Was there a time when you did not believe in God but wanted to?

Originally posted by vivifyNot that there's anything wrong with that.
Children all around the world (like some Muslim countries) are taught to believe in a god, even before they are able to understand what a god is. No "profound transformation" happens here; children in those societies simply accept what they're taught, and grow up believing in a god.
So while such children aren't "born" theists, it's instilled in them at such an early age (christenings, baptisms, etc.) that they may as well have been.
