That's not true. Every single culture in the past has devised a belief in a deity/s and religions have formed as such. Every single culture, tribe, band, etc, have done so without fail. It's part of our human ontology to believe. Belief is the default.
So babies are born believing in god? Rubbish.
There has historically been tendencies towards religious behavior, it arised from a need to provide an explanation for cosmological factors that were unexplainable through reason at the time. As a previous poster stated so eloquently with their torch analogy, religion has tended to spring up in the dark areas which were yet to be illuminated by science and reason. It is no different today.
Thebrowndog is being duplicitous when he says he is incapable of belief in a God.
Fair point. I am capable of believing in a god. Show me some evidence and we're off and running.
