I've found christianity extremely hard for me to believe in and I still find it that way for me, and to tell the truth religions aren't one size fits all or even most. You have to find a system in which you believe and a religion that fits you. I've found mine and will start studying it more thoroughly in the upcoming year.

humans are isucure. if something goes wrong we dont want to be to blame so we instead place the blame on Gods or Goddesses. We dont want to think that we are all alone in this world so we created a higher power then ouselfs, we need something to look up to. there was a realy great explanation of this in a naruto manga, were Pain preached that he would be the God to stop all wars. Pesents look to the nobility, nobility look to there kings, the kings look to the Gods they can not see.

How do you all believe? After everything? With everything going on?

I'm not wording this right...

I guess the best way to put it is I became an atheist because I couldn't believe in anything anymore. How did you all remain believers?

Is it support of family the entire time, blocking some things out, or just a faith I don't have? What is it?

well, for me its just that..even "with everything going on" we still all have hope, all are alive(and for those who are not, may they rest in peace), and al have something to live for. if not for god and its creations, would there be such a world as this? I helped one of my pastors do an explaination of Lifeline by Papa Roach and conecting it to christianity.
in the song he says many things that connect it to christianity..even if its no a christian band:
"I've been looking for a lifeline
for what seems like a lifetime
I'm drowning in the pain
breaking down again
looking for a lifeline"
you see this pain is "everything going on" and god is the lifeline.

"You know a heart of gold
won't take you all the way"
being perfect or having a good behavior wont bring you to heaven.

"So I put out my hand
and I asked for some help
We tore down the walls I built around myself
I was struck by the light
and I fell to the ground"
god is this light, the lifeline that is needed to go through this pain and suffering in this world. without faith or reason of living, there wouldnt be a purpose.i hope this is reason enough to believe in christianity

lol when science proves those things, its kinda hard for a book written by a bunch of old men who have no understanding of modern day science and what it has discoverd to knock them down

(sorry i could have written better but its new years and im all hyper and etc and so im not at my best xd )

Well, some people resort to athiesm because they don't know what 'religion' to believe in. The fact is, true Christianity is not a religion, ITS A spiritual relationship with Jesus, whose awesum by the way once you get to know him. It sounds weird, but its fullfilling of that empty void we all have. To prove God, its easy. THE BIBLE. How can you deny a thousand year old book when its been around and prophesied about things that already happened? Its a part of history that no theory can't deny. Its your choice, but its been truly evident for me Why i'M STILL A cHRISTIAN, kuz religion and tradition aren't as near as how fulfilling a spiritual Christianity. Believe me, I've seen it.

No religions have any proof that's why I'm an agnostic atheist and skeptic.I can't claim I know there is no god but neither can the believer prove it we can just state reasons why it's logical or illogical.I certainly don't believe in the traditional conception of god but if by god one means the universe then yes god does exist.

the world is indeed going to end, but we do not know the date. it could be before or after 2012. instead of water, everyone who dies during world end will die from fire. but jesus will come before that. before he comes to us living, he will see the dead. be saved before you die! live in Heaven or Paradise! not Hell!

There is no way im converting to Christianity, id rather slit my wrists.
Anyway I like the Nevarien religion and according to the First Empress everyone will be judged and tested at the end of their lives. If we pass we shall live for eternity with our ancestors in the palaces and cities of the gods and goddess.
If not we are reincarnated into a new body until we can pass the tests and judgments which just goes to show how much more benevolent our gods and goddess are compared to the Christian god.
