I have a question for atheists, why are so many of you guys animators? 
The people behind The Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park (I don't recall their names off the top of my head) Are all atheists, as far as I know. What's up with that?

Knowledge is only part of the equation. Two people receiving the same knowledge... will not have the same beliefs. One may emphasis some things that other won't. Perhaps one might choose to not take some knowledge to heart. How about those atheists that claim to have come from Christian homes? I'm sorry, I doubt knowledge is enough to predict what an individual would believe.
Yes that is very true, and I agree "knowledge" cant necessarily predict "belief". This is because every individual is different.
I think you generalized my argument too much, I am speaking of why an "individual" believes something.
Then given that belief, for them to change what they believe, new information would be needed. One can't simply arbitrarily decide to change their belief.

I only generalized it to two people. I'm also speaking about individuals. And I'm trying to get at a few points...
1. Christians can come from an athiest families...
2. Atheists can come from christian families...
Also... beliefs can be made off other beliefs...
Superstitious beliefs are great examples that evidently go against what your saying too...
And correlations... who people may believe in.
The examples above may not include knowledge, your definition of knowledge or the traditional philosophical definition of knowledge. You say that beliefs come from knowledge. I'm telling you its very obvious according to the points above. Beliefs MIGHT MIGHT MIGHT come from knowledge but... knowledge isn't necessary to have beliefs. I also think its extremely easy to argue that we live our lives mostly based off reasonable beliefs we faithfully make based off clues and what seems like evidence... not knowledge.

You're swimming in "new" information. I know this because I have been providing it to you in the form of scholarly information and empirical evidence that refutes atheism, refutes assertions made by atheists, and provides positive evidence and argumentation for the existence of God and why Christianity is the correct worldview.
Faced with a large body of empirical evidence for something that is substantiated by a large body of experiential eye witness correlation: at what point does your rejection of irrefutable knowledge become willful disbelief?
