Very entertaining stuff here- I'm just catching up. 
I wish that I could be so confident the way you guys are about what you believe. I just don't know what to believe. I was raised to believe that God created the world in 7 days and for 6,000 years his chosen people (the Jews) roamed around Asia and meanwhile this pure Bloodline was carried on from Adam to Jesus Christ. After all those years of sacrificing animals to the One True God- now God had a new plan: Jesus would die once and it would atone for all the sins.
Now I'm just not sure about anything. I see holes in all the theories- so what can I believe in?
Even though I have my doubts deep inside somewhere is this compulsion to pray that I have never been able to shake. I can not logically justify a God, but I am too superstitious to disavow God without proof either. I try to just do the best I can and search for enlightenment. If I'm shown or can see that I'm wrong- then that's what I'll believe.
