Denying God with Confidence.

I saw an atheist in a Larry King T.V show. I could understand that atheist can be suspicious of God existence. The thing astonished me about this nice lady is how sure she was of his non-existence. I did not hear all her arguments. But one of them was: that everyone follow the religion of their parents. That is right in the materialist world when everyone is busy with his life and want social religion on the side. When there were active religious recruiting in Christianity and Islam people converted to either religion. Even for a lot of people in the same religion there is active struggle in man's mind between faith and no-faith. Actually faith itself is degrees. At personal level when one has a lot of suffering or at a nation level when the country runs through crisis humans question their faith. However, if one reads the bible and Quran one finds the same struggle even for the close followers of prophets. If one to understand that by default humans like their father Adam are created to be in heaven one has to regain his faith. If he understands that the few years in earth is a short test that and if he passes the test he reclaim his palace in heaven he would suffer and carry on. If he remembers that the enjoyment and God gifts for most of us are more than suffering we would agree and alleviate the suffering of other people. If one reads from Islam that all children who die go to heaven (I do not know about dogs) he understands there is a lot of compassion waiting for us. If he reads Islam and know that doing one good act earns you 10 points and one evil act only one point again you would understand how much compassion is waiting for us. If one knows by being righteous as God wants us we all will enjoy heaven in earth (feel free to worship or not) and in the eternal life (you have to worship God and believe in heaven). So it is simple there is a God and there is a lot of compassion but God wants us to start here in earth with each other if we would like to have it in the day of judgment. It is normal for humans to seek more evidence. That is why God gave miracles to the prophets and in Islam the Quran is the everlasting miracle. So to be confident there is no God you have to read the Quran first and unequivocally deny it is from God. I tried to do that my self and I became a strong believer. Please refer to the topic God's existence proofs in my blog as well other topics in Islam.
