Why Do People Believe in God?

People believe in God because it helps them understand the world and feel safe. Imagine you're a kid who doesn’t know why the sun comes up every morning, believing there's someone in charge might make things seem simpler. It’s like having a friend who watches over you when no one else is around. Some people see God as a parent, a teacher, or even an invisible friend.
