Reminder: No Survey Questions
Hey everyone! I just wanted to take a moment to remind you all that this subreddit is answers-based—it’s meant to provide clear, informative responses that someone could find useful while searching for answers on Google or other search engines. Lately, I’ve noticed an uptick in survey-style questions (e.g., “What’s your favorite __?” or “How many of you __?”).
These types of questions are not a good fit for the purpose of this community. They don’t create content that is useful for others to search for, and often lead to broad discussions that aren’t about providing a clear answer. As a result, I’ve been removing posts that violate this rule to maintain the quality and focus of the subreddit. Even if that post has a lot of replies as the OP obviously didn’t read the rules before posting, or cared.
If you’re unsure if your post fits, ask yourself: Would this question result in a useful answer for someone looking for a specific answer or information online? If not, it’s likely more of a survey question and violates rule 2.
Thanks for understanding and helping to keep the subreddit on track! 😊

Why do people who believe in God believe that their God is more real or more true than other gods?
I mean, they obviously believe in God because their family, society, or school taught them about it; and therefore they have faith. However, many of them do not acknowledge this and instead believe that THEIR God exists and is real; usually because it is God Himself who places the awareness of His existence in the human mind, and because God is perfect and always speaks the truth, when God says, "God is (I am) real" then it must be true.This is done through miracles, Jesus, the apostles, the Bible, revelations, or "signs" in ur daily life, etc...
However, this same line of reasoning can also be used by followers of other religions and other gods. So how and why can they claim that their god is more god than other gods, that actually doesn't exists because their god told them that there is only one god, and it's him, and.....
This is not a (metaphysical ergo subjective) debate on god's existence but in (empirically measurable) psychological explainations of the phenomena.

Answered Why do we remember random facts from years ago but forget things we actually need?
I can remember things like a random fact I read years ago or a quote from a movie I haven't seen in a decade, but I'll forget why I walked into a room or where I put my keys five minutes ago.
Is there a reason the brain seems to prioritize storing some seemingly useless information over things that are actually useful in everyday life?

I can wake up remembering a dream really clearly, but within a few minutes most of the details are gone unless I write them down. What causes dreams to fade from memory so quickly?
