Of the same reason you are convinced there is no God.

Human beings, for some unknown reason, need to believe, but are largely unaware of how their internal beliefs are formed or what the substance of belief is. There'd be no debate or discussion if no-one believed, apart from in politics perhaps.

Most of what conditions our thinking and beliefs happens to us - external realities, that we have to form into internal constructs. Our beliefs are just the map of the terrain.

All hail the terrain, and woe to the maps - let's inherit a bit of earth. That's what I say.

Beloved, now are we the sons of God(most of us don't know this or believe it)and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that(most don't or do not believe it),when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

For he appears to all and when he does appear to us we shall know that the image(Jesus Christ...The Light of God) is who we really are, the athiest image or whatever other image we have fused ourselves with(and playing the part of) will be no more.
