       We know you can consider the possibility that there is no God associated   
   with Earth. Try to provide evidence youe can consider the possibility that   
   there   
   IS a God associated with Earth. If/When you can't do that it will be clear the   
   only possibility your mind is capable of is no God. That being all you're   
   mentally capable means that's all you're capable of believing. Why are you   
   ashamed of it? That's the only thing in question. Well, that and since you are   
   ashamed of it why don't you try to change it? That goes for ALL of your atheist   
   brethren who like to pretend they have no belief even though they can only   
   consider the one possibility. Since you/they are so ashamed of it, why don't   
   you   
   try to become what you so pitifully try to pretend you are, which is a person   
   with no belief?   
      
       Here's a clue for you: Since the possibility that God does not exist is a   
   dead end and only one possibility, it involves very VERY little consideration.   
   Since the possibilities that God does exist are vast and endless, considering   
   those possibilities involves a lot of consideration. That's a starting line for   
   you. See if ANY OF YOU can get as "far" as that starting line.
