Believing in God implies believing in something one can't proof (that's why you <u>believe</u> in god, you can't deduce his existence).
Believers say that the existing world is the proof, but that's not a proof that convinces atheists as it isn't a "scientific" argument.
I think this is one possible reason why people doesn't believe in god.
I for myself don't like to believe, but if I'm sincere I have to admit that I believe in something, something like I said earlier on this post. And I think I believe, as you said, in something just to fill the void and I do that unconsciously, because rationnally I know that this void can be filled also with culture for example instead of religion (for instance I suggest you to read "...and therefore spoce Golem" from Stanislav Lem he there developps a nice theory on humanity).
But the question

is completely out of place, because that means (even if you've got friends of other religions) that you believe christianity is the only right religion. Saying

, doesn't mean that you do not think that the best thing would be if the others would convert (to your religion as it seems to be the best one).
Writing this I notice another reason for which I don't believe in any religion, just because many of them believe to be the only one and then instead of helping living in a better world they create hatred.
One last reason for which i don't believe in any common godness is because all religions I know of seem to me made of hypocrites (not sll the believers, but too many):I know skinheads (extreme right) that go to churchI know Bush says he is a believer, wouldn't that implie that he should love his ennemy and show mercy, for example while he was gouvenor of texas and on 120 death-sentences he didn't show mercy even oncedoesn't the islamic religion also say to love your ennemy (Jesus is a prophet in their religion)doesn't the buddishm say to respect nature?and so on
I hope i anwered to your questions
