Good question!
Many people who deny the existence of God have been hurt or let down. They've laid everything in balance on one do or die prayer:
"Lord heal me of this and I'll believe in you."
"Lord, give me a million dollars and I'll give my life to you."
"God if you're real, heal all the cancer in the world."
God does not work that way. You don't prove God by giving him an ultimatum.. you prove him by your faith in him. By giving him the opportunity to perfect your faith. Those that deny him, simply have not given him that opportunity and do not understand that God's ways are not our ways and his thoughts are not our thoughts. He has a divine plan that no where in the Bible is stated that we have to understand. The Bible says,
Hebrews 11:6 - "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."
Most that do not believe have never even given God a chance, and if you do not "diligently" seek him, you do not receive the rewards he has for you.
Best Wishes!
God has given you the very breath you blaspheme with, and the very energy that you use to ignore him. Would you further bless someone that you had done all that for?

Not in anger. I think a lot of people deny Jesus as the Christ and anger has nothing to do with it.
I mean... Look at Peter.

Why would I be angry at such a good man? That makes no sense, he has done nothing to me, if anything, he helped humanity throughout his entire life (that we know of at least). Anyways, I don't deny the existence of Jesus, he was a real person, but as far as him being the son of god, no, I don't believe that, but not because I am angry. Why do you guys always assume that people that do not practice religion are bad people, and why do you guys always have to ask these stupid questions.

Many deny the ego version of Christ, which is found in the bible. By denying the ego version of Christ and god, we acknowledge the real Christ and God: the one of Unconditional Love.

I don't "deny Christ" any more than I deny the easter bunny, santa claus, or the tooth fairy.

By Christ I assume you are referring to that guy Jesus. Why would anyone be angry at him? All he did was die.

Yep, you got it. Really those of us who deny fairy tales do so because we're mad at them. We hate democracy and freedom too.

I am not angry with nonexistent things. I deny him due to my sanity.

I'm not angry...I'm sane, well-adjusted, and have had a great life so far. I also like thinking.

That'd be me. Other reasons too though.
