Answer 1

Yes, there are people who believe this. Check out the link below. A study has shown that we are the least trusted minority group.

Answer 2

Atheists are not rapists or murderers because they have not committed any crime, they have just chosen to seek God's intervention in that way, which is not normal to the majority. What God means to them is a big question to me. The problem again is that they deny the very fact that God is not existing, while at the same time they cannot explain categorically, how nature came to be. The fact that they believe in other supernatural beings or cults does not mean that the God of other faiths or other people are fake. Is wrong to be in this possition.

I respect, their religion as any other group with no fundamental values or issues to do with God. I don't agree with them on the notion that we can only believe on what we can understand, see, touch, smell and feel. That anything out of this is not existing. Can they (atheists) explain life with no reference to supernatural force?

Answer 3

Crikey, certainly not, though I was christened I do class myself as not being a proper believer in one particular religion, as though I do believe in certain aspects associated with christanity I don't agree with them all, there are certain aspects associated with different religions that I also believe in but not all so I don't label myself under one particular religion, this dosn't make yer evil, what about people who go around killing people saying its in the name of god, surely they aren't good people just because they say they are christian etc. Some people on here talk uttter nonsense don't they? By the way I do believe there is a god out there or supreme being.

Answer 4

I'm an atheist and I've never killed anyone in the name of my god! I've never b*ggered a little boy and said it was god's will and I've never tried to force my opinions down any religious person's throat. If that makes me evil, so be it, but I think I'm a good person - I just don't believe in god. I've seen so many evil things done in the name of religion that I choose to have no part in it whatsoever.

Answer 5

I am a christian and i dont think athiests are evil, everyone has to answer to God for themselves, He alone is judge, not us. God said; " If you seek after Me with you whole heart, you will surley find Me." You have to find Him for yourself, and ramming it down your throat will only make you anti. But God does not only love christians, He loves ALL of His kids, so much in fact that He came to take our sicknesses and sin on Himself on the cross, He did it for athiests and christians alike so that we could be with Him as a big family.

Answer 6

Sin is sin in the eyes of God. An atheist is given the same measure of grace as a rapist or a liar. However grace is only good on this side of the grave. The gift of salvation is free it is not earned. an atheist can be one of the greatest and most moral people alive and still go to hell because he rejected Christ.

Answer 7

Athiests are not evil, they just don't believe in God. I guess they believe that they are punished here on earth for any sins they have comitted and that they don't have to answer to anyone after they die. Maybe they also believe they don't have a soul?

Answer 8

We all have our own standard of "goodness" by which he assume is universal, But there is one standard that is universal, God has set this moral standard in motion and its caled the Ten Commandments. The BIble says the Commandments will be the ultimate standard by which God will Judge us On Judgement day. lets look at a few to really see How good, or Bad we reallly are and if we will be good enough to make it to heaven.

Have you ever lied (even once--fibs, white lies, etc.)? Ever stolen (anything--the value is irrelevant)? Jesus said, "Whoever looks upon a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery already with her in his heart." Have you ever looked with lust? If you have said "Yes" to these three questions, by your own admission, you are a lying, thieving, adulterer at heart; and we’ve only looked at three of the Ten Commandments. There are seven more to Go, have you ever hate someone? The BIBle calls this Murder of the heart. If God Judged you by this standard on judgement day, would you be innocent or guilty? The BIBle says you and I would both be guilty, Listen to your consiceince, you knew it was wrong when you lied and stole or when you harbored hate in your heart. The BIble says we will stand beofre him and we will be without excuse. The BIBle warsn that the punishment for our sins is death and hell, But, God has done something wonderful, despite the fact that we have sinned agaisnt him and deserve Death, He sent His Son to take our punishment: "God commended His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." He was bruised for our iniquities. Jesus then rose from the dead and defeated death.
Your own so-called “goodness” can’t get you into heaven any more than mine could. Jesus is the only way to Heaven. He is the "Door," the only "mediator." There is salvation in no other name, so pray something like this: "Dear God, I repent of all of my sins (confess them). This day I put my trust in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. Please forgive me and grant me your gift of everlasting life. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen."
