So what are the "right" reasons for believing in God?

It's funny you'd accuse me of not answering questions when you've answered approximately a tenth of mine.

Who would I pick? The girl that loves me, obviously. Is your analogy flawed? Yes, and I'll explain why I think so.

You're comparing a relationship of a bunch of people to the relationship of God and people. God picks many people, not just one (from what I hear). I'm not condemning someone because they don't love me, they're free to do as they please. I don't wish ill towards people for the simple fact that they don't love me. In fact, I still wish them eternal happiness.

I'm not hiding myself from this person. Maybe if they knew who I was, they'd actually love me too! And if I was hiding myself from this person, wouldn't it be my fault that they don't even know me? If I did have the power to punish someone because they don't love me, and wished to use it, can I claim it fair to punish them when I've purposely hidden myself from them? And if I did so anyways, wouldn't I be a giant prick?
