Even in my most difficult moments in my life, I still believe in God. Because there are things in our life that you can explain why or how it happened. It may be a simple word someone said to you. It didn't mean anything to them but to you it was an answer you longed to hear for. Or sometimes a friend that you consider an angel send from above. And even with our high tech society, we can still explain the birth of a child, how he/she grows in the mother's womb. These are wonderful mysteries that only Someone much greater than us can do. I believe in God and He is my rock whenever I feel like I want to give up. I know He will always be there for all us! Have a blessed Day!! (^^,)

Well, I find it difficult to put any trust in statistics. The reason being, they can't possibly have polled every single person in America. No one I know was invited to take part in that poll. Besides, on msn.com, they're relying on internet users to voluntarily offer their opinion for the majority of their polls. So, that leaves out a huge percentage of people right there.
As to your questions, I don't believe that anyone should ever feel that they are even being asked to surrender their belief in anything. I also don't think that anyone should ever feel that they are being asked to change their belief or religion, particularly because that's what the "majority" wants.
I do agree that there are many people who are completely devoted to their belief. I believe that those people will never be swayed from their beliefs, no matter what happens, no matter what they are told, no matter what... period. I don't see any problem with this. I think that having a belief in something is a beautiful thing.
As to whether or not I believe in God? Well, that largely depends on which god you're specifically referring to.
