I didn’t know about technical explanation, Bayesianism, or Solomonoff induction when I lost my faith.
I still don’t, my comprehension is at best vague. My knowledge of history, evolution and physics is virtually non-existent. The main reason for why I don’t believe into a god is that an universe with a god seems less likely than one without god. Not because I have studied evolution and made sense of its mathematical and conceptual foundations, but simply because all other available explanations and their implications sound incredibleunlikely, even less probable than a global conspiracy among rival scientists to reach a consensus on something as complicated as the theory of evolution.
The original reason for me to abandon religion was that I perceived the christian god to be morally bankrupt.
