In my experience, it all depends on one's circle of influence, and their point of view on life, how they were raised, and what they were exposed to. Some people's lives and personal experiences led them to the conclusion that there is no God, and some people's lives and personal experiences led them to the conclusion that there is a God.
Either way, it's never appealing, or appropriate, to act as though one's beliefs make one superior to another, whether you believe in God or not.

Very true mate, but there are a few points I would disagree on. I think that peoples minds CAN be changed. Social conditioning isnt permanent. Whether its from muslim --> Christian, or to Christianity, or even a religion to atheism.
People find God at different stages, it dosent have to be a relevation in a public place, it can be somewhere as innoculos as small warez forum, yet it is just as poignant and beautiful even if its not realised.

I do agree mostly that the dicussionss mostly that, discussions, but we must keep our minds open :)
