I mean if i had born in muslim country, i would most likely be muslim. Had i born in Israel i would be jew. Had i born India i would be hindi. ...and so it goes.
On average people tend to keep and value the beliefs and, well values of their childhood also later in their life. Ofcourse there are always converts and those who lose their faith (if they had one) - but i dare to say that on average most stick to what they were born with.
Anyways - i was not asked where i wanted to be born, not certain if someone else choice in the matter.
Existence of God - well that is ofcourse hard one. Instead of arguing about God's existence, i have some seriously trouble understanding what kind of person/entity/force/?? "God" would actually be in the first place. I mean for something to be able to create "everything" has pretty much lovecraftian implications of being way-way over human understanding and comprehension.
-> In this sense i actually see some great wisdom in (for example) muslim ban on depicting God.
God is self-existent and everything else exists contingently, so God is not composed of matter and doesn't look like anything we can perceive with our eyes. God is an eternal, omniscience, omnipotent, all loving, all good, and personal being. God is beyond human understanding, but there are certain aspects that we can understand.-> In this sense i actually see some great wisdom in (for example) muslim ban on depicting God.
