it seems to me that this thread may serve to feed trolls on both sides of the issue. i personally belive God created me and everyone out of love. i personally plan to be a catholic priest. i understand why some either never developed faith or have lost it, and i pray for those individuals everytime i do pray, and i also dont disrespect those who have no faith. that is what we are taught (or should be tought to belive) that god will accept anyone and loves everyone, and i figure if God accepts and loves everyone who am i to throw His teachings away just because i dont agree with them.
