How the hell does a debate with the title "Should people believe in God or not?" get the winning supposition "God doesn't exist"? This isn't about God existing or not. It's about weather or not people should believe in God. Plenty of people believe things they should or shouldn't and often times its better for everyone else. Some examples: People tell their children not to talk to strangers because they don't want them to get kidnapped even though the vast majority of strangers are not kidnappers. Some cubs fans believe that their team has a shot at winning the world series and its best to keep them believing that so they don't go insane and kill all of us.

Behind every person and item whether it is unknown or other otherwise there is a belief. When someone sees or hears something which they cannot identify with their own experiences they instantly scrutinize it. If people were all the same they would all possess the same beliefs. The one thing we all share is our own need for self-destruction. Mankind can find justification for any act no matter how deplorable, big or small. Pan out with your imagination from the place you are and imagine the world, brilliant and blue spinning in the cosmos, steadfast in its resolve to be perfect and different from the rest of the solar system with its life and death. Now bring yourself back down to earth with all the people living on earth and remember why you’re alive. Your life began with an accident; your conception was one-in-a-million mathematical chance and your death will most likely be one to. People hang onto beliefs to give themselves meaning, so they won’t feel like an accident. Why is this illusion of self-importance so necessary? People think they are messengers from god, think they can make the world a better place through genocide and science, and believe that art, poetry, religion, and the realm of the imagination can save them from their accident. All this bravado, noise and entertainment are distracting. It’s like too much icing on the cake or too many toppings on a cheeseburger. It’s sickening. There is no purpose or reason behind anything on this earth. No grand scheme like you would like to believe. Conspiracy theories are another farce to give the human race importance. They’re beliefs just like everything else. What would happen if everyone, one day, just decided to stop believing? No one would aspire to do anything human; we would all be animals, driven by our own instincts not needing hobbies, jobs or toppings on our cheeseburgers. People need purpose and that’s what beliefs give them, a reason to live that is. We’re too smart to just migrate from place to place in search of food and shelter like the animals, too dumb to stop killing each other over differences and most certainly too lazy to stop ourselves. We must share the burden of belief in concert with one another.
