Epigraph:

We have not created men, high and low, but to worship God. (Al Quran 51:56)

[Prophet], when your Lord took out the offspring from the loins of the Children of Adam and made them bear witness about themselves, He said, ‘Am I not your Lord?’ and they replied, ‘Yes, we bear witness.’ So you cannot say on the Day of Resurrection, ‘We were not aware of this,’ or, ‘It was our forefathers who, before us, ascribed partners to God, and we are only the descendants who came after them: will you destroy us because of falsehoods they invented?’ In this way We explain the messages, so that they may turn [to the right path]. (Al Quran 7:173-174)

I think the above short video is a good place to start if your journey to religion or Monotheism is going to start in science, rather than what you have been indoctrinated with about the history of the prophets or divinity, be it Moses, Jesus or Muhammad in case of the three Abrahamic faiths, or other prominent saints or other figures in your immediate society or sect.

Then I want to take your journey gradually from agnosticism to theism, with the help of collection below.

Atheism goes hand in hand with denial of Afterlife or ultimate accountability. We do have a good collection of articles about Afterlife.

The neo-atheists often want to be dogmatic about religious topics and want to shut off such discussion. I believe that my collections and those of Robert Lawrence Kuhn are easy ways to escape dogmatic yokes of modern day atheists and their media.

Please watch the following video as you contemplate on the psychological ramifications of the following verse:

[Prophet], when your Lord took out the offspring from the loins of the Children of Adam and made them bear witness about themselves, He said, ‘Am I not your Lord?’ and they replied, ‘Yes, we bear witness.’ So you cannot say on the Day of Resurrection, ‘We were not aware of this,’ or, ‘It was our forefathers who, before us, ascribed partners to God, and we are only the descendants who came after them: will you destroy us because of falsehoods they invented?’ In this way We explain the messages, so that they may turn [to the right path]. (Al Quran 7:173-174)
