why we believe in god(s)

Well I think for most, if not all religious people, the existence of god is fact and anyone he chooses to save from an accident is lucky, or 'chosen' to do his work or whatever. Similarly, when people find out I'm an atheist the first question I'm asked is "Why don't I believe in god?". To you and me that's a bizarre question similar to "Why don't you believe platform 9 3/4 exists?", but in reality it only goes to show how they take it as undeniable fact that this god fella exists. Still, surely the rescuers deserve at least some credit?
