    So much this.

    My little brother is religious AF and I’m an atheist, and that whole tidbit was one of the more frustrating things to argue against.

    He’d INSIST that if I didn’t have faith in God, I must have faith in something, because it’s human nature to believe.

    It’s like, naw bro, maybe that’s just YOUR nature, but it’s like he just couldn’t think outside that type of thing.

      it’s human nature to believe

      This is why children never ask questions like “why”. Not ever, not even a little bit. They just believe they understand and never even inquire.
