They fascinate me.
As much as I can't stand to be around them, I look up to them in a way that really makes no sense. I myself can not wrap my mind around a higher being creating us all, and I give major props to those who can. The people who are desperately searching for an answer (All of us), often find it in God, no matter how much they doubted in the past. I have always believed that God was only a being created by a fiction writer to help people who have a hard time living with no answer have peace of mind. I've tried, I truly have tried, to believe. I sat down and read the bible, I went to church every Sunday, I prayed, and I tried as hard as my mental capacity would allow to believe there was something. Every time I've tried, I have failed. I always come back to the conclusion that the story doesn't make sense.
For me, living without an answer isn't hard... It's confusing.
From the day we are born, to the day we die we are all given the answers to some of the hardest questions. The only question that I have never had answered without a long, contemplating pause beforehand is 'Do you believe in God?' Many people will get defensive. Many will want to know why you ask that. One thing I have never gotten is a straight answer... unless it is a simple, 'No.'
Seriously, M.B.

The title confused me at first. I thought it meant "people [enjoy] this" and not "people [such as] this". Just a side note.
The people who are the most confused about life and the questions it brings up are the ones who are the most solid in their beliefs. This is why when you point out a fact that goes against their religion, they deny it with all their might, for they fear bringing up questions that have no definite answer.
