Not atheists. Anti-theists. People who hate the God they believe doesn’t exist.

They can tell the Almighty they don’t believe in Him when they face Him in person on Judgement Day.

Using the atheists’ logic, teachers shouldn’t be teaching sex ed, either...

How can you be so sure? Surely you do not believe that all of the creations you witness around you on a daily basis happened by happenstance do you? Even if you happen to believe in the big bang theory does not mean there is not a God. After all, what created the conditions for the big bang, touted in the theory yet never proven as fact, to occur? Those conditions themselves could not have occurred with no building blocks. So you see science no more has the definitiv3e answer as to how all that you see around you came to be there.

Even Darwim's theory does not exclude the existence of God, because for something to evolve it must exist in the first place to evolve. So what created that original version? Science has no definitive answer. Theories are just that theories, that must be proven or disproved. Once proven they no longer remain theories. Both of these theories remain theories, that fall extremely short of creating a definitive answer.

Science has been unable to disprove there is or isn't a God, but then science has failed to provide scientific explanation on many mysteries that occur as to how they occur.

If you can be so convinced that their isn't a God, only proves that you yourself have never looked for God as a personal endeavor. Perhaps you should take that journey, as it is a journey we must all take as individuals.

One thing I have never figured out. Why do atheists hate a being (God) that they are positive does not exist?

Oh I looked. I believed. Then I saw god refuse to help the murdered toddlers, the millions killed by dictators, and I stopped believing.

You are an empty vessel . God allows mankind to act on his own , man can live by God’s laws or not . God’s intervention occurs at the time of passing . Be prepared or not .

you are an as9. Yeah, I am far from perfect but I did everything I was supposed to: went to church, volunteered, procreated, raised my children to be children of the Book, taught Sunday school, but still I saw a god that didn’t give a sh8t. Am I discouraged? You betcha.

there are many gods in this world - people we idolize, feelings, habits and such we just don’t believe can be or want to be changed (our god of selfishness), material things we worship, must have, can never let go.

there is only one God :)

We commune with God in spirit. We know Him in our heart. Earthly life is a physical separation from God. So you went to church and did all the right things, that has no real bearing on this life except for how it makes you feel better. We will have our treasures in heaven.

My son once asked an atheist: "If there is no God and no heaven or afterlife, what does it matter if Christians pray? We all end up food for worms, right? So, why do you care if millions of people believe in God, just because you don't?"

He could never get an answer.

Your nihilism is hollowing you out from the inside. Try to open your eyes to the moments of beauty and grace that occur every day. It might not help you believe in God but at the very put you in a better mood.

I have to fight my own nihilism every day.

I agree these people lie about themselves, they worship, just not a Christian, or other recognized religions God. They worship at the altar of Null and demand all others do too. In their way they are as bad or worse than the muslins.
