My faith is based more on personal experience and knowledge than Biblical stories and stuff. Several times in my life I prayed for things that were very important to me, and against all odds, the things that I prayed for happened.
Plus, the world is just so amazing. I mean, it's been here for a while, but stuff like DNA and biochemistry is just really awe-inspiring. Eukaryotes have not been around for a very long time, and yet the diversity (including different numbers of chromosomes with very different functions), the specificity of organs... everything seems like something is guiding how things work on this world.
Is there a chance that I'm wrong? Yes. But in order for me to stop believing, something massive would have to happen, like Greek or Norse gods running about. I mean, what would you expect would make me stop believing?
