My non-belief system is logical and provable only if I believe in non-belief, which is dependent upon believing in something that I cannot prove beyond doubt, thus leaving my in the invidious position of believing predestination, viz: I believe that I exist, therefore I my believe in a non-belief system is predetermined, based upon the necessity to believe in order for my existence to be provable.... oh I give up, it’s easier to believe in God!
