I worked with a guy years ago who was Muslim and we had a conversation about religion in general. He had his beliefs and I respected him for being so forthcoming ( I wasn't very religious at the time, though I prayed enough as a kid), so I'd listen to him politely as I do find culture and religion to be an interesting subject.
As it were, one day when he was speaking to me about his beliefs, I told him "the issue about religion is that you accept what you are born into" He surprised me when said, "this is true".
When I asked him "do you think you would have become Muslim if he hadn't been born into it" and he said, he wasn't sure, but he imagines he would have eventually.
So I ask you all on here "do you think you would have gravitated to your current Faith, if you had been born into some other world view"?
