That is not true Del. Children are born believers- first in their parents, then in all sorts of magical things. That is why the Bible wants people to "be as little children"- because no one is more capable of magical thinking then a child. And I think it is probably the natural state of man to be a believer- all cultures have some sort of deity. Being an atheist you are also believing- in an unprovable negative, which seems to me just as irrational as believing in a positive. Being an agnostic is unnatural, which appeals to me.
