Default Re: Psychology vs. Religion

It seems to me that people never seem to examine all the evidence on the existence of God...Since their natural bent is to be self absorbed and deny him

Is this really accurate? I'm a devout atheist, but don't really talk to my friends about it, so I have no sample size. To me, it seems like it would be sweet if there was an actual benevolent god... But there's no evidence supporting it, while there are plenty of theories that can explain why religion was invented by man. I mean, I also wish there was a soul, free will, life after death, etc. but have yet to see anything supporting these possibilities (in my view) so I refuse to believe in them.
