aroten2000 I try to pray before I eat, but it doesn't always happen. I have pretty much gotten past being afraid of what people will think of me. Sometimes, I feel so hungary that I pray and eat at the same time. I need to work on this!

Are human beings born as Atheists, Agnostics or Theists?

fightingistheonlyway @fightingistheonlyway (2658) • Canada 25 Aug 07

Some say your born atheist because you are born a skeptic, and human beings are naturally skeptic and require proof for everything that is said. Others say your born agnostic because you have no idea whats going on in the world...

aroten2000 I think human beings are born as babies and that God gives everyone a "free will" to choose their ways and to make their own decisions. People we have in our lives can also influence how we think and what we become.
