1. None. Never in the history of the world has someone come up with hard evidence proving there is a god, an afterlife, ghosts, or anything like that. An intelligent person would therefore have to conclude that such things don't exist, and were only made up so people wouldn't have to face facts.
2. To be honest, none really. Even bible prophecies aren't a good reason to believe in Christianity. Most of them are either so vague they could be referring to numerous events throughout history (or just one and people are interpreting them for their time), or they were written down AFTER the event happened, a practice known as post-diction.
3. none.....its only experience and faith that will take you on the true and narrow road....
4. You have to remember that Christ was a very real person and most of his miracles were viewed by hundred of people.... And those miracles that were viewed by just a few were still just as real.... And the greatest miracle of all was when his people viewed him after his resurrection after his death And his Resurrection alone is worthy of your faith and belief...........
5. To give a nice even flow of answers, I'll give the lighter side of things.
I believe in God, but not Jesus. However, all my friends are Christians and I used to be once upon a time.
It's just being able to talk to someone, God, Jesus, Muhammad, Jehovah, Abraham, Mother Mary, Buddha, whomever. It's the same for all deities, it's just the comfort in having someone to tell all your problems to, having faith in something after life. It helps with stress, personal problems, all that and more. If you do decide to look further into this, do not believe what you see on the media about Christians, the crazy ones you see are only a small fraction of the Christian population, and for the most part, alot of them are really less judgmental than some Muslims, Catholics, and Jewish people.
6. Well considering how corrupt the catholic church is and how over history they destroyed many beautiful cultures and forced their methods of religion into the minds of people and used the name of Jesus for theft and murder during the Dark Ages... you have a good point!
I don't think God will blame you for choosing a different belief. Christianity is mainly a man-made religion. It was based off of a great deity but for the most part the teachings Christ are the only things holding it up. Men have changed the religion from what it was meant to be. Form your own beliefs, not what everyone tells you to. But make sure it has morality in the center. I think that's the only noble and important part of religion.
