as there are christians.
most all of them are here trying to reason with the christians, trying to help christians think less shallowly and consider the implications of condemning silly things like homosexuality and so forth. They are here becuase they love humans, even beligerant ones.
If your are christian, do you feel the opposite? do you really think that these people are guided by EVIL and are doing this becuase they are lost in satan?

If anyone believes that atheists are guided by evil and lost in Satan (which far too many do), then they are not truly "Christians" as they do not follow the teachings of tolerance and kindness 'taught' by Jesus Christ. Ah, but there were a great deal of teachings in the Bible that denounced Christ by utilizing violence and war in his name, perhaps because the Bible was (eureka!) written by man (yes, I know, "God's Word", but are you sure that simple, sinful, selfish man transcribed that exactly?). Too many people believe what they want to believe regardless of the evidence (i.e. that their sins are somehow more forgivable than anyone else's) and it is a huge turn-off. Religion does this too often. I cannot be a part of something which condones intolerance and despises humanity so richly.
That people use 'God' as an excuse to exhibit their ignorance and vicious hatred toward anyone unlike themselves is evil. I am an Agnostic Atheist - I believe in an energy of sorts, something that guides us to find one another (or maybe I'm just lucky, having found the love of my life), but I can as much prove it to anyone (including myself) as I can steal the stars from the sky.

You accuse satan for everything bad in life when you haven't taken the time to figure out that being skeptic may be a good thing?

No, Hitler was EVIL. Saddam Hussein, Charles Manson etc.
No matter how annoying a human being can be they are lovable compared to torturers.
Relatively few people are really EVIL or holy.

I keep hearing that you are trying to help Christians think, but this is the definition of Atheist:
Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1) - Cite This Source
a·the·ist /Ëeɪθiɪst/ Pronunciation [ey-thee-ist]
–noun a person who denies or disbelieves the existence of a supreme being or beings.
[Origin: 1565–75; < Gk áthe(os) godless + -ist]
If you are truly an Atheist, you deny the existance of any supreme being, singular or plural.
As to silly things like homosexuality, we do not say those things, we tell you what God says about those things.
However being an Atheist, you don't care what God says.
There is no God, right!

Yes indeed, it is our duty as christians to hunt the4m down and display our love and tolerance to them, even if we have to kill them to save them.

Most of them are acting like 12 year old bigots who are intolerant of the faith of others.
