Now, this is going to be a huge generalization... but...
Why can't a theist say "I don't know" ? Yes I know that you don't all have a problem with these three words... But when pressed about a topic, a theist seems to be more prone to give reason why their god did this or that instead of saying "Well he didn't quite inform me of why he did that."
I just found this interesting because it is my belief that religion came about because people didn't like not knowing why things happened so instead of just living with it, they came up with false reasons of why things happen. Seeing how the theists respond to some questions makes me believe they have a hard time saying I don't know and it just strengthens my belief.
