Atheist only attack the Christian for believing in God, where Muslims as well believe in God/Allah, but they don't attack them, why?
If there are people who believe in God? what is it to you! you can believe in nothing, and let others believe in what they want to believe.
You are no different than those who force others to convert to their religion. Actually, you are worse, because all those who believe in a higher power, believe, whereas you! Believe one day you will become one with Earth. You be be nothing any more, you will be gone as easily as you came.

Thank you all. some points: night_sta, Atheist look down at those who believe in God, Chrisitans or Muslims. You should read more, if you don't object many other Atheist do, and mock those who believe differently than you.
Rob, not that was in my question, but Muslims want to convert the whole world into Islam. they want their Sharia to be the law in every country. Did you know?
Rance, we all want to defend ourself, you are no different.
emo_harmo, so you agree you are bigot. false or truth is not the objective here.
Kissmysta, it is your damn preference, who asked you!
Ontario ashley, Muslims don't preach! Postive effect as looking down on those who believe differently than you!
Jim, we all a hyprocrits with certain degrees.
Captain Atheism, a confession! get rid of them, both!
googlywot, Muslims say the same thing about hell.
jsmlj, honesty, both are ignorant.
Luckie ladee, You don't know the answer either! we all are bigots, inculding You. Judging all people. No kidding.

googlewot. have you seen or heard what the Muslims wants the world to be? No!
People are not the same, including Atheist!
get out and find out for yourself before speak of things you don't know, or refuse to see.
M k, Thanks, believe whatever you wish, as anyone else. Look around this site alone, and see how Atheist attack as if they know all, and everyone else is ignorant, but them!
Brian_sef, You are right and everyone else is wrong?! Facts! reality! hummm. prove it! the question was not about God, it was about the Atheist! how typical to divert the question.
William P, provide that God doesn't exist! if you believe in science then everything is possible. Then again, the question was not about God, but why are Atheist that way, on this board at least.
Bigot: a person who refuses to accept differnet views, in this case God, is a bigot. you refuse to believe in God! connect the dots!
P.S. I don't want nor will I ever attempt to convert anyone to anything. Live &let live.

Check this out. I am an atheist. I don't believe that ANYONE has the power to know what is behind the intricacies of life, whether you're Christian or Muslim or whatever. I think all organized religion is ridiculous.
THAT SAID, all atheists do not "attack" people that believe differently. As an atheist, I cringe when others do this. I realize that there are some rabidly intolerant atheists out there, but most of us are content to live and let live....as long as we're not hunted down in the hopes of conversion. Let us believe what we wish without judgment and we'll do the same for you.

Wait a minute. Your criticizing atheists for defending their beliefs? Sound like you may be the bigoted one here. So I am no different than those who force others to convert? So, it seems that I am no different than any christian. Look at the Crusades. The Spanish Inquisition. Research and find out how many Muslims were killed because they would have rather died than convert to Christianity. Killed by Christians, in the name of Christianity, in the name of your GOD. Believe what you want, but when a young religion, (Christianity was pretty new at the time) Has to force people to believe than it dosent make a very good base for the religion as a whole.

I think the atheist's stay out of it.
they dont attack because they
aren't into it to begin with, to have the
emotions or mentality to behave
as the fanatics do. You got to remember there are good and bad within every denomination or lack of denomination, can't hold it againstthe entire sect for the extremes or ill attitude of one.
just because you havent witnessed it from every where doesnt mean it doesnt exist.
God is. period. defining through religion comes from man. period . no religion will alter or change what is.period. doesn't matter what we think or our neighbor thinks, it will not change what is. period
The people that arrived on this continent, claimed to be christians and forced thier beliefs upon our people, so they get the credit for the mayhem and destruction here.There are good christian people here, not all are ridiculous .Seems to me there are pretty radical sects in the islamic nation as well that gives muslums a bad rap., so when following a discipline truley I don't think anyone is bad, because the whole idea is to control mass population anyway and keep people similair, to make community living more harmonious and to keep the rich rich and the poor from taking it.
spirituality is cool . religion ought to be against the law but that is a confliction that every man should have a right to believe what he chooses since the relationship one has with god should be entirely private , intimate and personal. but we dont do this . all the nonsense and hypocrisy in religion really should be outlawed more then anything else in the world.. Think what a nice place this would be without religion as a community force, but entirely personal.

Fair question right back the other way. You accuse Atheists of being bigots, then answer the question as to why religious believers are bigots? Your question is indisciminant bigotry in and of itself, so this seem to be a valid retort.
Belief does not make you right or make supernatural forces real. Provide scientific proof of the existance of your alleged Gods and I would dare say that every Atheist would adopt a personal acceptance of that knowledge as true and worthy of praise.

What ? Muslims don't attack??
Muslims are currently terrorising and killing in 85 countries and 99% of world terrorism is due to Muslims. And the Muslims who are not actually participating are providing the funds, the cover and the approval.
Any country that gives resident status to Muslims is mad, and unfortunately the West is suffering from mass madness. Islam has been, is now, and will always be a terrorist religion.

Your premise is essentially wrong. Generally speaking, most atheists believe in equal opportunity for all the ignorant of the world, and will attack any person who is trying to bludgeon them over the head with some morsel of irrational thinking.
Also, it is not true that atheists do not believe in something: we believe in FACTS: scientifically demonstratable, available to all, down to earth FACTS. We don't have to believe because we KNOW. But, since you would rather cling to Stone Age myths and outright lies, you have to find some way to attack REALITY for not agreeing with your pathetic irrational superstitions. Well, guess what? REALITY IS, AND YOU CAN'T CHANGE THAT. So you either have to disown it or you're going to have to alter your beliefs sufficiently to make them meaningful in this world. Good luck.

Atheists don't criticize Muslims as much because Muslims don't come on here and preach and preach and rant about how we are all going to hell because we don't believe in the same stuff as them.
Your comment "you will be gone as easily as you came" - YES that is true, that is the whole idea for atheists. We are born, we live, we die, the end. Hopefully the good things we do during our time here have lasting positive impact.

I Know an Athiest and I can asure you he is NOT a bigot. The thing he doesnt like about christians is the way they preach and basically say if you dont believe in god you will go to hell!!!!!!! How many muslims do you get knocking on your door trying to convert you.

No. You are confused. Atheists will defend themselves against ANYONE who attempts to impose a God view upon them. This includes muslims. Being a Christian attempting to spread "the good word" you are simply in the position of having to defend Christianity from the Atheists...you don't often see the muslim who is attempting to do the same.
