“I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn’t,
than live my life as if there isn’t and die to find out there is.”
~Albert Camus (French Algerian Novelist)

I have always loved this beautiful quote :)
Camus said this? I always thought he didn't believe, I thought that's how existentialists lived, and that he was an existentialist. I'm learning...

Yes, It's all about faith and the evidence of things not seen

I thought the same. I have some Camus I need to read to find out what else was on his mind.
Camus was an atheist. This quote, at best, has been widely misinterpreted; even more likely, Camus never said it. A quick google search will bring up no credible sources but much skepticism.
