You shouldn't choose what you believe, you should accept what is. Otherwise you should be believing in Gods (however mutually exclusive they may be) since: 1) If you believe in God and it doesn't exist, no harm. 2) If you do not believe in God and it does exist, you go straight to Hell.

  4) Suffer the consequences of trying to fool an omniscient being by pretending to believe.

    5) God does exist but the reason there is literally no evidence is that he wants to test us and will punish those who believe in something with no evidence and with send to heaven all those who don't believe in him. Seriously. Pascal's wager is the dumbest wager I've ever heard.

Since there is no possible way to know 'what is', we all must choose what to believe. To believe otherwise is to delude ourselves.

The set of all possible "Gods" includes deities who punish worship, who lie to their worshippers, who are completely two-faced in their dealings with mortals, who have completely random intentional urgings, who put everyone through the torture of infinite fractal realities, and/or anything else that throws the wrench in trying to rationally deduce the "goodness" of "God". This is also compared with the possibility that humans are faggots who will talk about absolute bullshit to make themselves feel better. No offense to gay people but I'm talking about the mass of humanity that seeks to "feel" more using ass-backwards strategies because they trust their idiotic culture too much. I'd prefer to remain silent until overwhelming proof forces me to consider "a being of superior influence on this reality who resides outside of visible reality". It could definitely exist (along with the things from the set of known unknowns and unknown unknowns). But I'm betting more on humans being faggots.
