Edit: And do you truly believe people should just do whatever they want? or was that just an exaggeration? (honestly wondering if your like anarchist or something)
Anyway, more on topic, I was atheist as a teenager, it was my own discovery in flawed human understanding that pushed me to agnostic [Couple examples off the top of my head: How we simultaneously understand the universe can't really be infinite, yet can't be finite, how we know the universe and time must have had a start, yet then you start to think "but what happened before that start?"] and was pushed from agnostic to christian from personal experiences and others who seemed wiser then anyone else.
