Why do We Believe in God? 

There are over 8 billion people in the world and the majority of them believe in a god of some kind.  But many of these beliefs are mutually incompatible… or it seems that way.

The ancient Greeks attributed acts of nature such as lightning or stormy seas to gods such as Zeus or Poseidon.
