The ones that do are realizing that sometimes life needs a little help..
It is during the most desperate times and the most hopeless circumstances that people find their faith again, and that is a blessing.

Your question is the standard question, 'There are no atheists in a foxhole', and, ironically, actually SUPPORTS the whole idea behind atheism: that the mind, when confronted with something it can't handle, will manufacture a mechanism (called 'God') to handle that trouble. That's one way of looking at it. Ironically, this made-up god would be the same made-up, ego-based god that is worshipped in most religions. On the other hand, when the 'self' (body, personality) is rightly perceived as not being the bedrock of safety that we think it is (when a crisis brings us to our comfort limits and our individuality can no longer help us), we're left with a surrendering of the self and the result can be an opening up to the real God. This God is the REAL God - the one of Love and the one that has no concept of hell, sin, guilt, judgment. It's the opposite of the false god that is worshipped in most religions.

I do most definitely not do that. Don't project. But why do I bother? Anyway, you have already called me a liar, so even if I tell you cows don't fly you are not going to believe me. Please open your mind, before trying to talk to anybody with a different opinion. You are not the owner of the truth, which is a good thing, too. If you were, you'd alter it at your convenience, and call everybody a liar, if we tried to change it back to what it was like originally.

I don't. I've dealt with the death of loved ones as an atheist and never once even considered crying out to god.
FYI, people who think they know what goes on in the hearts and minds of perfect strangers are generally considered to be arrogant dumbsh*ts.

Unlike Christians, who yearn for someone else (God) to solve their problems for them, I take responsibility for mine and work my way out of them. There is no God to call out to. I do not understand why you think we need belief in a magical skydaddy in order to be truthful or to find solutions to problems. Christians are no better than anyone else, they have the same problems as other people, they commit crimes, they curse, lie, cheat, steal, and masturbate to Internet porn. Would you be offended if I said there was no truth in them?

in case you hate humanity you will desire to hate your self as you're area of humanity. You look accountable God for lots of your suffering which shows a number of faith. there is not any longer something from God that led to the idiots that made your life hell to %. on you. Had they accompanied the training they'd have under no circumstances acted interior the form they did. do no longer enable them to make you lose your faith because of fact God grants lots for the committed and not something for the faithless. that's no longer a punishment to the faithless that's a loss of advantages for obedience and perception. God knew what became suitable for human beings to get alongside as brothers and there are a number of on the instant who stick to what God needs. they do no longer hate yet supply prayers for people who sin against them. You do hate bullying and bullying is a terrible element so which you do no longer delight interior the suffering of others as you declare. i'm specific in case you observed a youthful boy being bullied you does not only stand there and experience his humiliation and suffering. you do not have an excellent time once you pay attention of a young person killing themselves because of fact they have been bullied. you have a solid heart and are mad for the evil that exists yet do no longer blame God for mans evil. i think of Asperger's is a crock and interior the conventional variety of being. no one is desirable yet no longer each little thing is a disease. some are only greater gifted in specific aspects. keep searching for God and you will see your outdated tormentors crying for his or her loss of Gods Love. solid success!

HUnh? what? are you on drugs? are you trying to make the theists look stupid? The only time that I call out the Lords name is in vain. These are the only cuss words available in a Christian dominated culture. It ranks exactly equal to slangy references to female body parts and male genitalia

Calling out to God is a pointless waste of time.
I don't do it. Neither should you.
Try to do something constructive with your time, like looking for a solution to the problem yourself.

Wow how rude and judgemental. I'm not atheist, but it's a persons right to believe or not believe. Do you think your God will like you being so rude and belittling?

I do? I could just as easily call out for Santa Claus or any other of a number of fictional characters.
