1. we dont want rules

Answer 1

Why are Atheists wrong when they assume things about Christians?
1. We're brainwashed
2. We're rednecks
3. We aren't educated
4. We were all forced to go to church by our parents.
Personally, I don't believe that all Atheists are bad people. You just don't believe in God.

Answer 2

Because they just use the prepackaged biblical insults that aren't relevant anymore. Back then when people still couldn't figure out why they got colds it was foolish to not believe that there was a God just because it made so much sense. Now we've seen that if there is a God he does very little because we know that pretty much all Earthly processes happen all on their own. So many things once attributed to God that were shown to be completely natural make me wary of making assumptions that everything I don't know must be a miracle. Maybe we'll never know the real answers but that doesn't mean we should take every answer that is offered.

Answer 3

I have to tell you that I don't make assumptions on atheists in general, only some that I have seen here. They will ask a reasonable question, but before they sign off and post it, the question will end up in a diatribe and name calling. We are "dumb, stupid, narrow-minded," one atheist here is fond of calling us retards-which you have to admit doesn't say much for his compassion for the retarded person who struggles daily with that whole issue.

And so the tone of the questions posed here is often angry and bitter. Your question is the perfect example - you start off wanting the answer to your question but your second paragraph has to get a dig in -"This is proof that you're way off base and that's why you think there's a God." You went from wanting an answer about us assuming things to insulting us....what's your point?

Ask yourself what you are trying to do with the question. Do you want an answer, or do you enjoy insulting the participants here?
You can't have it both ways.

Atheism is impossible to prove. You're trying to prove a universal negative. You're saying, 'I know for a fact there is no God anywhere in the universe'. How could you know that? You'd have to be able to search every little inch of the universe to prove that. Even that wouldn't prove anything because If you searched all of the universe I would just say that the reason you missed him is because when you were over here he was over there. You'd have to be in every inch of the universe at the same time. If you could do that you wouldn't prove that there wasn't a God you would prove just the opposite...namely, that there was a God because you would be God if you could be in every inch of the universe at the same time. Even if you could be in every inch of the universe at the same time I would just say that the reason you didn't find him was because you were looking in the universe and he is outside the universe. If God created the universe he would have to be outside of it since he existed before the universe even existed, having created it. Athiesm is utterly impossible to prove. It's not only impossible to prove , it's implausible to believe. The fact is, everywhere you look in the universe there is design. Where there's design there must be a designer. That's just common sense. You can call that designer whatever you want to call him. I call him God. Anyone who could design a universe would have to be a God. Life only comes from already existing life. It does not come from non-life. Louis Pasteur proved that back in 1800. They call it the Law of Bio-Genesis. That's is a scientific law. It says basically that life always comes from already existing life and that Like produces Like(dogs produce dogs, horses produce horses, humans produce humans, ape produce apes....).That law is not non-falsifiable. It could be disproven. All you would have to do is find one example to the contrary either today or any time in past history. Nobody has ever done that. What we see is that life always comes from already existing life. It never comes from dead chemicals. The only logical solution is that there must be a God. If you're an atheist, You're saying 'I know dogmatically that there is no God'. Again, there's no way you could know that. If you're saying, I just don't know whether there's a God or not, then you're not an athiest, you're an agnostic. But either way, common sense says there must be a God. If you're an athiest, you're not taking that position for intellectual reasons. There's no logical reasons to believe atheism is true. You're probably taking that position because you want to live your life your way and you don't want any God to tell you what to do. So you pretend he doesn't exist.

Answer 5

Hi i am not a christian but i do believe in God and i am curious about what makes you and others like you atheist. I know why i believe but i would like to know why you don't think i should. I have heard a lot of nonsense like science doesn't support it or the bible is full of contradictions. What i would like to hear (and this goes for any and all atheist reading this) is why not in your words from your heart. try not to be generic we all know about the priests(Very bad) and the bible. What makes you dislike God personally. I will be watching. Peace.

Answer 6

Is it your assumption in believing that ALL christians assume the wrong things about Atheists or our assumption that ALL Atheists think Christians hate Atheists that is wrong.

Am I right or wrong in believing that you have met ALL christians.? OR is it just the ones you have met that have that think the wrong things about Atheists.?

Answer 7

It is not that you don't want rules, you just want to make the rules. Sorry, doesn't work that way.

Something bad happens to everyone at sometime. For unbelievers, you can look forward to something really, really bad happening.

Judging by your questions and comments, I would guess there is anger and bitterness there.

Answer 8

It's always good to listen to what people are saying & not be put off by the labels of "Christian" or "atheist". I also find it helpful to see how people put into action the beliefs they profess. Adult thoughtful living is hard work.

Answer 9

What am I to assume other than you don't believe in God? Huh. I've personally never instinctively attached any of those things to atheists.

Answer 10

All I know about Atheists is that they deny my God exists. Thats all I need to know.

God Bless
