Convince me to believe

[Gracile]

As an atheist, I'm probably the last person who would convince you to believe in any given religion, but I will say that being "convinced" of something is looking at faith (and the lack of faith) the wrong way. Even when I was taught about other religions or participated in moments of prayer/ritual, I never doubted that intrinsically these rituals were meaningless to me and had no relevance to my true allegiance toward atheism. I assume this is true for many religious people, as well. Knowing about the philosophies of different religions is important to adherents, but what's most important to them is that they have integrated the rituals and texts as a way to make sense of their intrinsic faith - to the point when presented with something else, they would still see themself as part of their chosen religion.

I'm not familiar with what your spiritual background is, but my advice to you is to look at what your innate view of the existence of a higher power (without thinking of external pressures like family, community, etc.) and try to see if there is a religion that fits with your conceptions. If something in you is telling you that you really don't believe and you are mostly trying to find a faith to appease outside pressures, take your instincts seriously and realize that organized religion is not suitable for you.
