You are right!

But "man made" religions are one thing, and Existence is another. You
can't affirm that God exists, just like you can't dismiss It; absence of
evidence is not evidence of absence. You have no proof; we are just
beginning to understand the basics of the universe, and we have been
dead wrong in the past. But for those that believe in a First Cause,
then one must believe by faith.

The bulk of Jesus' followers and disciples were Jews; they must of seen,
felt,whatever, something, to have convinced them of converting to
Christianity (something very far apart from the Roman version which it
eventually evolved into.

Being a firm believer in evolution and in modern cosmology (and big bang
theory) I have found it difficult to accept everything I read in
religous books; rather, I have a viewpoint which is very different than
your average believer.
