They are probably wondering the same thing about us atheists.

Jesus is a fact, because history has documented his existence and there were over 500 witnesses who saw him alive after his Crucifixion. In any court of law, that would be enough evidence to prove it as a fact.
On the other hand, to state that there is no God, when more than 99% of the universe is yet unexplored and still a mystery to the most educated of scientists, is the same as analyzing a one inch square of soil in New Jersey, and finding no trace of gold, stating that not only is there no gold on the entire earth, but that gold does not even exist.
This, of course, would be foolish and completely unscientific, just as you are.
Also, you do what you want, whether it is wrong - oh wait, you don't believe in right or wrong - so let me restate that. You do what you want, whether it has negative consequences for others, as long as it feels good for you. This is the same thinking that has been documented as the result of the fall of every civilization recorded in history.

It would be like your parents saying that you don't exist. They believe you exist because they have seen you. They have a relationship with you. They know you.
I believe God exists because I have seen Him do things in my life Oh you could say it is coincidence when I pray for something and then exactly what I prayed happens, but I see it differently.
I believe he exists becuase I have a relationship with Him. I don't claim that a 700 foot Jesus speaks to me physically, but there are times when God shows me things through nature, thorugh life situations and through other people.
I know God and have seen Him fulfill promises that he has made. He has never failed me yet, so why should I doubt?
You might try reading the book The Case for Faith, If you read it with an open mind you might be suprised what you come away with.
God bless...

Because we who are Christians have enough sense to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit of God, and obey Him; rather than to listen to the devil and allow him to trick us into burning in Hell, as every atheist will do.

Come on, not all of them are bad, maybe about 90% of them are false. About 10% are ok.

Because it's neither false or BS. Why don't you admit that your atheism is BS?

We could ask you the same question only it would be
"Why don't you admit that it is real". It goes both ways.

Because it is not "BS" to me. Jesus Christ is the Son of God - he is not false. I have a real relaltionship with Him.
He is my Guide, my Anchor, my Rock and my Salvation. All praise and glory to Him.!

Because its not true. That is why there is Faith. Once you have faith to believe you will understand where we are coming from.
