Most of the atheists are former christians. They didn't come to atheism from a "feeling" that jesus didn't love them. They came to atheism from a study of the bible (for the most part).
It's really not that I don't want to "accept love." I'm all about love. I'd just like to believe in true and real things.

I agree with you on that thought but, everyone has freewill. They can make a choice whether to believe and serve God or not. At 2Corinthians 4:3-6, expresses how the god of this system of things, [Satan the Devil] has blinded the minds of unbelievers. (3) If, now, the good news we declare is in fact veiled, it is veiled among those who are perishing, (4) among whom the god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, that the illumination of the glorious good news about the Christ, who is the image of God, might not shine through. (5) For we are preaching, not ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your slaves for Jesus' sake. (6) For God is he who said: "Let the light shine out of darkness," and he has shone on our hearts to illuminate [them] with the glorious knowledge of God by the face of Christ.

What makes you think that God loves everyone? As it is written,"Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated".
What makes you think that Jesus died for everyone? As it is written,"I lay down My life for the sheep."
Are you saying that Almighty God is enabled in power and salvation by the yielding and acceptence of sinful man, who is but dust? I beg to differ! As it is written-"I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion." So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.

Kow yourself first then ask Questions
building temples, mosque, churches and gurudwara snatching others bread away, and thinking you got atonement for all sins committed by you. No, till your good deeds do not dominate the bad deeds, the discontent ness will never spare you.
The results of your deeds come out as your destiny. You can never feel content until you don not obey to the humanity inside you. Your consciousness will drag you on thorny surface till you get wounded. You will suffer in agony, shriek in pain and die rubbing the heels. After that also there is no reservation. You may find a place in the womb of a beggar on street. The above matter may not fit in to you probably. You obey to your conscience, abide by you religion. Try to get a mark sheet from your own inner soul, because when the final result will come there will be no opportunity to rectify yourself.
O men, messengers of God, pardon me if any thing in my statements hurts you, because my motive is not to hurt your sentiments. I am eager to share you grief only. Because no body can get happiness as long as a single person is not out of the grief. Because our soul is the part of that supreme soul (Almighty) only. If an acne shows in the body, the whole body feels it. That is why I am mentioning that nobody will be completely happy, when a single person is still in grief.
O lord; O allah; O Jesus ; O guru ; if you are something then punish me on behalf of all the sinners of universe, so that there will be atonement for every one’s sins. According to the narrator of bible, sin is the all cause of sorrows. Jesus takes pain and dies on the cross, because of the sins committed by others. If the almighty pardons without crucification, then he is disobeying his own principles. So to rescue the people from the sins, experiencing crucification is a must. If every body’s sins are washed away by crucifying a single person, then allow me the opportunity to be crucified on behalf of others. What difference does it make, whether it is Jesus or an ordinary man. It should only mean the atonement of sins. And by doing this if everybody’s sins are cleared and the peace comeback to the peoples life, then O lord, I am ready to be crucified on your behalf in front of the people of whole universe. Let me climb on the cross.
Let me be pierced with nails. Let me be crowned with thorny crown. With the lifting of hammer, let my shrill be echoed in the sky. Let the sky be shaken with this scene. Let the earth surface be torn apart with the dripping of my blood, in return I want only peace and happiness for all. Or else if you maintain a register as a record for the sins committed by people, then register all the sins of others, in my name. I am ready to suffer for others sins. May it be for millions of birth of mine, so that all can live in peace. Or give me such a power that every body can be relieved of all miseries by means of me. Let there be a unfading smile on every body’s face, like dew drops on the petals of flowers. O god ! I know that your decision is the final one. This creation of nature is the developed form of yourself only and the loopholes created in it during the series of its development can be cleared by you only. It is not within the capacity of any human being. Because O god ! you are the only original element of the creation which carries no cause. You are the nameless, shapeless, neither an existence nor a non-existence. You are neither visible nor invisible. You are neither mortal nor immortal, neither been decayed nor been undecided, neither an empty nor a full, neither inert nor conscious, neither a soul nor a prime soul. You are the ancient of all existing beings. Still you need a name for the purpose of understanding. So hence forth. I shall call you as God O God ! you are an omni present a non-entity a regular and an infinity one. This sky of infinity and the thousands of universes spread in it is your representation only.

Why don't you understand that by denying the Goddess you are denying the masculine and feminine in each of us, in all plants, animals, all of the world, and condemning us to a life of imbalance and destruction?

Jesus died for no one, in fact he most likely never existed.
I have no need for your brand of love.

"For what is evil but good tortured by its own hunger and thirst? Verily, when good is hungry it seeks food even in dark caves, and when it thirsts it drinks even of dead waters."
