Of course there is much justification for not believing as well. Just goes to show how inconclusive this all still is. (which doesn't mean philosophizing about it is useless).

I'm kind of confused... Can you believe that not believing and believing are both justified positions?  That seems contradictory.  

I believe God exists (due to personal experience and the arguments I've researched). I believe there are good arguments for believing. But it would be presumtuous of me to claim I can at the same time disprove all atheistic arguments and do so decisively. I have an awnser for most of them, but to say I can fundamently destroy them? No. If I would make it my lives work, perhaps I could uproot one or two, but since I'm a more positively inclined person, I'd rather strengthen religious arguments instead. Since I also believe these arguments are not perfect (which does not mean they're false).
