Do you believe in god? If you do, why do you believe? (give a few reasons)
I grew up in a Catholic family. All of my relatives are Catholic and I value my religion as I value my family. I can only think of many reasons why I believe in God but I am going to tell you that faith is the only reason I need to believe in Him. I hope that this would be respected. Thank you.
Most people respect your "faith" as that is your own personal choice. Good for you I say!
The respect is lost when others (BADecker as an example) tries to justify his position and condemns others who don't share the same belief.
