So just how many famous rap stars, actors, directors and comedians do you know? I would guess it is none. If you knew all these interesting and famous people I would imagine that you would spend some time hanging out with them rather than sitting alone in your parents basement trolling the Internet for an unnecessary and pointless argument.
It is also pretty clear from the behavior of these famous entertainers who you seem to idolize that even if they identify as Christian they are clearly not. Take Britney Spears who has often claimed to be a Christian. She has sex outside of marriage, has two kids with some retard, gets divorced, and then goes out getting wasted with no underwear on, showing the entire world a view of her shaved vagina. It's quite one thing to claim to be Christian, and quite another to be a real one.
Take you as another example. You are clearly claiming to be a believer of some kind, but instead of spending your time helping others you are trolling the Internet insulting and judging people just for the sake of it. Do you believe that God will deem this a sensible and worthwhile use of your time?

I'm sure there are some famous entertainers that are atheist, and even so, who cares? Do you think we are going to convert because our favorite singer doesn't share our religious beliefs? No. We don't care what they believe.
"Even rock stars who claim to worship Satan are just using a gimic to get blind little atheists to like them."
That wouldn't get atheists to all of a sudden like those rock stars. Atheists don't believe in Satan.

Well, that is interesting. I listen to country music, and there are all sorts of spiritual songs throughout that genre of music. I just listen to the songs if I like them.
I have never, to my knowledge, been tricked into liking a group because they worshipped satan. I don't know of any groups that openly talk of satan worship as a means to gain a following. KISS wasn't even satanic, they just painted their faces, and talked about women, partying, and having sex. Gene Simmons is actually jewish.
That is where the misconception is. Atheist will not listen, read, watch, or participate in anything created by a christian. If something entertains me, and I like it, I don't care what religion the person made it was. But, if I made a blockbuster movie, and people knew I was atheist, there are many who wouldn't see it on principle. My principle, if it is entertaining, I will watch. I don't care who made it.

Yeah, lets hold up all the rap stars, actors, comedians, and all the other entertainers of the world as the best humanity has to offer. Nevermind the academics, those egghead don't contribute, and combined they're not nearly as smart as Paris Hilton, so those atheist academics must be wrong about religion and God too!

First of all you generalised and second of all how do you know that they didn't make a pact with the devil to become stars?I'm christian by the way but still not all stars are christian , Tom Cruise isn't and I'm sure that at least half of them aren't so faithfull to God , it's hard when you have money and Vanity is devil's favourite sin , anyway what I'm trying to say is that most of them became christians after they become big stars because they are afraid of God taking their riches.Anyway it's just an opinion I'm not judging anybody , only God can do that.

How would you know what religion (or lack of) rock stars actually are? All you know about is their publicists' version of their lives. Just because their bio says they are a specific religion, doesn't mean anything. Like you said, its all to get the blind little teenager to like them.

That's funny, most actors I know are either Jewish or Scientologists.
If all the artists YOU know are Christian, I think that says more about YOUR lifestyle than reality. If all you listen to is Christian radio, then ALL singers are Christian, right? Your ignorance is showing.
