Why Believe In God?

Ok, I have laid my hands on a copy of Richard Dawkins The God Delusion. I have noticed that the author tries to account for why people choose to believe in God – I think he may be missing the mark. Often, he seems to think that people arrive at the notion of God while trying to account for the existence of the physical universe.

I am just as interested in the opinions of atheists, but I would like to hear from theists first. I know that I have readers, but I get few comments. This time, I would like to ask a specific question: If you believe in God, what leads you to believe in God? I am less interested in what you may believe. Ok, fine, God is the answer – less say that He is. What is the question?

Please leave a comment. I can be counted on the neither agree not disagree, but I just want to do some research – I suspect that Dawkins does not understand why people conclude that there is a God as well as he thinks. What do you have to say?
