That is so interesting. Thank you for making that point. It's invaluable! I took for granted that everybody wants to know God, therefore they all want to believe in Him. However, you hit on a great point. There are no doubt some people whose hearts have become so hardened, that they don't even want to believe. That explains a lot to me in my personal evangelical efforts. Thank you for illuminating something that I did not previously see. Many blessings to you, fren.
Or you have people like me who grew up in a liberal non-religious family who prided themselves on being too "smart" to believe in God. It depends on your conditioning when you were young and impressionable.
I've known for over a decade that what people call "God" is actual the Universal Consciousness - not an old man with a white beard (that's Santa Claus).
I don't think Universal Consciousness created the heavens and the earth. It might be responsible for making people aware of God and Him having done so.

I think the Holy Spirit is a closer representation to what people call "universal consciousness." But it's just another aspect of God.
Congratulations on figuring it all out OP..!
The Book of Souls?

True. But that is, in a way, another form of not 'wanting' to believe.
