Is it because they want the good feelings and happiness Christians have, and they are jealous. They need to put us down in order to justify their lifestyles, and anything else they want to do, instead of what the Bible teaches. They twist and turn, call us morons, etc., & ask over and over the same questions. Are you ever impressed by this or ever changed your thinking. Do you realize that they are under the influence of maybe something bad and the religious people always repulses others that do not want to follow Christ or our Lord God? Is your faith ever challenged by these types? They would probably be the ones throwing the Christians to the Lions, what do you think?

Why do they want to make it their business to destroy the Christian belief, when most of them have never even been in a church, I bet, nor read the Bible but a few pages they are quoting.

Because if they really think about it, the quesitons Christians ask makes them acknowlege they don't know the answers, they're afraid they may be wrong, and because of that, they're lashing out in anger and panic

I don't know what passage it is, but the Bible says that when God created man, He put in the knowledge that he was created. All you have to do is look at the beauty in the world and know that there is a creator. There isn't a civilization in the world that doesn't search for the god that created them.
When people work so hard to not believe, it's like trying to hold a large ball under water. You have to work harder & harder to try to keep it under. I think they are on the verge of understanding God, but Satan and his henchmen are working harder to keep that person from knowing God.
What I find interesting is that when I was an unbeliever, instead of hating Christians, I wanted what they had. I was a satisfied, loving Catholic for 37 years and had no desire to change. I knew God was real. All of a sudden I had many non-Catholic Christian friends in my life. They all said the same thing. They all had "something" special that I knew I would get someday and I knew I couldn't fake it and that I didn't want to fake it. I didn't know how to get it, but I knew that it would happen to me.
When I completely gave my life to God, I didn't know something supernatural would happen. The new person I felt like the next morning, made me feel like I was "born again". I had what they had!! I remember hearing the phrase "born again" and realized that's what happened! My life has real hope now!
I've found that non-believers don't like being told that they may be wrong, so they lash out. I can only feel sorry for them because they don't know the Saviour.
None of them have caused me to doubt my faith one bit. They've been responsible for callouses on my knees because it makes me realize all the lost people there are and how far they are. (Not too far for God, though)

I don't think that it is just the Christian faith being put down. Look at the insults raised against Jews, Muslims, Atheists, and all other religions. Every religion is being persecuted right now by every other religion. It's sad, but i suppose it's a natural way of life. Religious ignorance breeds intolerance.

The insults are no longer for all Christians. And the insults are no longer basically from the non-believers, yet from the believers as nicely. each and all the insults flow to ones who condemn people to hell for no longer likely alongside with what they say, or what they have self belief. To those that rigidity Christianity down peoples throat. people who attempt to strike anybody down in the call of God or Jesus. those are the Christians that each and all the insults might flow to. no person insult your perception. No insults they way you think. yet your strikes and your words are what instigates the insults. Many Christians basically bear in recommendations the Bible to coach a factor. yet forget approximately each and all the training that it teaches. 2 substantial training that Christians forget approximately. First. decide no longer, for yee would be judged. 2d. Yee with out sin, solid the 1st stone.

Hi, These things/believes/struggle cant be answered by man or science and technology. Only thing left for the mankind is to find out from the ONLY ONE CREATOR that created everything that exists.
The thing is people donot know what to follow. They follow something that havent said by Jesus (peace be upon him PBUH) himself. The solution to this is to do a research and find out the authenticity of the source or the books. It is not at all difficult in todays world.
In Short: The only PURE ORIGINAL WORD OF GOD is left on the phase of the planet is the HOLY QURAN that came with the prophet 1400 years ago without any single letter corrupted, that guides, Faith with Proof, show way of life, gives answers to all questions, solutions and tells much in details of what will be going to happen (past, present and future) and the purpose of existence, etc. The WORD OF GOD came with the prophets including Jesus (PBUH) and only person to interpretate is the prophet of GOD at that time, but unlike HOLY QURAN all the other Books are corrupted and are not in the PURE ORIGINAL WORD OF GOD. In muslim world there are many books available today in different languages of the ORIGINAL INTERPRETATION of the HOLY QURAN by the prophet of GOD about 1400 years ago that is the only interpretation that has to be follow to be the true follower of the prophet as commanded by GOD and the ONLY WAY to SUCCESS that is both in this WORLD and ETERNAL PARADISE.

The reason we become mad about Christians is very simple one, this religion together with its sisters (Muslim and Judaism) are based on the statement that "we are right, you are wrong". We, non believers think that everyone could have his beliefs, but the key word here is " beliefs ", not truths, just personal and very interesting and good minded beliefs. But look at this, could you find a bloodiest religion in the human history than Christianity, millions of people have been killed in terrible ways just for not believing in the Good Lord!!!! Even now our christian Mr. Bush is killing thousands of Muslims in Iraq based and finish all his radio speeches with the terrible and nasty " God bless America for its killings and massacres ", man, whoever with just a hint of really love and compassion for humanity will keep himself miles away of your Good Lord

You actually answered your own question!
Answer: stereotypes
Just as you stereotyped every non-believer as being mad about believers, most non-believers have a stereotype for Christians.
A non-believer views Christians from their interactions with them. Most of these interactions may be extremists on TV or Christians who try to convict people by telling everyone they are going to Hell.
Just like them, you take the instances of non-believers putting Christians down and generalize it to everyone who is a non-believer.
As Christians it is not our job to convict people, we are supposed to share the Truth and let the Holy Spirit take it from there.

The existence of God is everywhere our eyes turn to.
They know that God exist but they choose to deny Him because they know that they'll have to acknowledge their sins and repent. As we are born with this sinful nature, we rather do what pleases the flesh rather than obey God( like Adam did). The devil is simply deceiving us by saying "...if it feels good it must be right...or there's no God...or there's many ways to God..." So instead of repenting they'll create their own gods with their own set of rules, gods they can control, they can turn to want they want, that allow them to do what they want without any conviction.Born again Christians are the light of this world, the truth that we speak bother the non believers and the religious...if they can't kill us they will insult, hate and react angrily. If they can kill they will be happy to do so .
But the end is near , Lord Jesus will come soon to rapture His people...i can't wait to be there!!!!

I agree with a lot of the things you say. I think its helps them feel better about their own lives.
its unfortunate that sometimes religionists put atheists down in a way that makes it harder for them to 'come to the light' so to speak. We need to be tolerant and compassionate towards them and not condemn them for they are already condemned (not forever though - people alwyas ahve the chance to turn around, just like a beliver can fall down). They don't make me lose my fiath. sometimes i lose faith though, at least a little. Its my own mind that is my worst enemy at times.

That i am a non-believer does not mean i hate Christians or Muslims or Jews. However, what i hate as a non-believer is that the Christians tell me that i am a hater. We got a real problem in this world with all the religions each claiming their God is the one and only one to be followed. May your God bless you and let me live my live the way i want. I hope you can say amen to that.

Their bored and have had the devil fill their heads with nonsense. Most claim to have read the Bible, yet ask redicilous questions, that had they truly read the Bible would have the answer. For example how many times have you heard my relgion exsisted long before the Hebrews or Christianty did. That might be so, but look to the Tower of Babel for that. There the Lord spread man across the globe. Sigh all you can do is pray for your peace and for their souls to be saved.
