Are they scared? If so God loves them regardless if they reject him. God forgives them and wants them to realize his love. But instead they attack God's people. why is this?

1) The media loves talking about the evil that Christians do but most of the time refuse to talk about the good that they do.
2) The media has a rule if they talk to a Christian about a question requiring brains it has to be an idiot Christian that they talk to. Smart ones are to be left on the cutting room floor..
3) Some Christians present the Gospel to people in a way that could do nothing but alienate non-Christians.
4)Some atheist hate the idea that they are not perfect and not the center of the universe.
5) Christians who tell atheist to have blind faith in Christ and completely ignore the fact that God told us to give them reasons for the faith, and that thinking people need reasons to totally change our lives especially if they already enjoy the one they have.

Why are you so sure you have the truth? I'm not saying you don't, but why are your beliefs any more right than the beliefs of an Atheist? Why can't everyone learn to accept that what is right for them is not neccessarily right for others and allow people to hold to their own beliefs as long as they do no harm to anyone. Does someone being an Atheist harm you in any way? No. Does you being a Christian harm that Atheist? No. In the words of one of the greatest poets of the last century "Let it Be"

Not all atheists attack people following a faith. The existence of God is a subjective thing. Not everyone believes in that.

What truth? Just because something is written in a book does not mean it is true. Maybe you've heard of fiction, or things that are metaphorical.
And within the church, there are many divisions, many different denominations, each with their own set of beliefs and often in disagreement with each other. So, if believers cannot agree on doctrinal differences, then how can they hope to convince non-believers?

Because they don't think that so much universal perfection and harmony can not exist just as a casual physical phenomenon, they either think that their body is made of simple chemical elements but turned into life because the weird force they have inside and makes all that matter can reproduce, live, create the world where we live and then die to renew the world. They neither think that the difference between a grain of sand or a mountain and a simple sesame seed is the hiden secret of creation and the capacity to grow and give life to others, IS THAT CASUAL? I dare those people to search inside their minds and submerge in meditation to find the answers and the real meaning of their lifes. Surely they will change their minds.
I think in the presence of God and his truth not because somebody thought me, but because I found him (it) inside my deepest rational meditations. Everybody have the answer inside their brain, it is our responsability to use it properly..

Each person has been given free will to choose their own personal truth. And truth for you will never be the truth for all. All one can do is hold the information and if they are willing to ask for it or if they will listen to it being spoken of (not shouted at them or shoved in their face) then you as a Christian must simply shake the dust off your feet and leave it alone. You cannot convert the world. And you will only alienate people further if you evangelize or push your truth on them.

Why do you assume that I'm scared?! If I was scared, wouldn't that lead me INTO Christianity...for fear of being thrown into the firey pits of hell?!
Nope, not scared. You are scared, otherwise you wouldn't be worried about death. I'm not worried about dieing. I'm living my life the way I want, following my country's laws, not your god's.
I don't attack god's people, unless they provoke me or claim to be victimized. All of my friends and most family are religious. I'm ok with that...much like they are ok with me being an Atheist.
So there ya go. I'm not scared, I can't reject something that doesn't exist, and I don't attack.
Have a good day!

Atheists need unassailable proof fo everything and he theists find it difficult to offer proof for whatever they believe in . The atiests are people who belive in turhts and the theists
are those who belive in miracles and imaginaion and false hood . Those who do not find i possible to offer proof for all tha hey bvelive in are angy with the atheists . Any thbeist who belives in anygod ahould be able to ofe cienific proof of his belive . Atheists are ahsrd only to those who ae ignorn of everything and anythnkng haty beliee in and after incapable of offering proofs to thier beliefs . Atheists are really inelliegent people and do not have any absurd belief ,Atheists donot aack belieers ,they only ask the belivers to think and ask questions and provide proofs to whatever the theists preach . They deseve an answer and those wh are not able to provide any answer o their quesions have no business to talk about God .No one is bad because he askes fo proof .If that is noso even all the presists and and preachers should also be bas as they in their real life ask for prooof for so many things in life .Even the god needs proof of one's faith .Is not it so? If he dose not need any proof of one's faith , he will have to send everybody to heaven only ,.There shall be no need for any judgement day.
Just think about the folly of this judgement day if no one should demand proof for anything . Becuase the the theists are not intelligent , they can not in the name of /god call the intelligent Atheists as bad people. Answer the questions of all atheists . I can do it .But i do not intend doing it as I have no need to convert any one and take to God . That is god's business I do not want to interfere with .

Because this was bound to happen- remember what Jesus said?
Matthew 24:9
"Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.
John 15:18
[ The World Hates the Disciples ] "If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.
-They are wanting to please themselves with something that sounds better to them- they do not want to give up sin and submit to God. And they have not yet received the gospel- so they do not have "ears to hear" --some may never receive it, but keep sharing the truth of God! Because God draws many to Him and softens the hearts of many~

Why don't you accept the truth about Wonko the Space Gerbil? Are you scared of gerbils? You know, Wonko loves you even if you reject him. Wonko forgives you and wants you to realize his love. But instead you attack people who believe in a Space Gerbil as though it were a silly idea! Why is this?
