Because most Atheists do thier homework before just saying they don't believe, they make sure they know what it is they don't believe in. At least that is most Atheists I know.

This happens because they will study the bible to see why they do not belive in a God while most of the time people who are Christian are that way because their parents want them to be. They never question why and will not read the Bible, or they just say they are.

Because to turn against something you have to understand it in the first place. Atheists don't agree to follow religions rules, and are free to criticize the vast pool of lies and control mechanisms that are the foundations of most religions, except Buddhism. If Christians are right, why are there Muslims blowing themselves up for their different beliefs? If someone could believe in something false like that so vehemently, doesn't is make you question the validity of your own religion? And therefore all religion?
Don't judge me! Blasphemers! ------------>

Because some Christians refuse to believe that the bible isn't the word of god, so they don't learn the history of the bible. The history is an interesting topic to learn about (how it developed, etc.) so some atheists like to learn about it.

Because you seem to have a severe problem with generalizing.
I also doubt that you've met every single Christian on the face of the earth and can therefore intelligently say that you know more about the Bible than all Christians.
And as for your bragging that you know more about the Bible than Christians?
If you really knew the Bible you'd know that "pride goeth before a fall."

If you knew more about the bible that I do you would be following Christ with all your heart. You would be doing 'beautiful things for God' every day. You would be living to serve Him by serving others. There would be a total shift in your inner axis to where you would be no longer self centered but God centered. You would know that no one is more in any way than anyone else. That we each have gifts from God within us and a responsibility to use those gifts to minister to others and a humility to receive from others those gifts they have to offer us. According to the bible we are all to be united to one another and to God in peace and love.

Because Atheists learned how to read. A skill far beyond Christianity.

Good question! It's because they are not true atheists. An atheist according to the dictionary does not believe in anything. And if they truly believed in nothing, then it wouldn't matter to them. So I think they study scripture trying to find a leg to stand on and they can't so they rant and rave about there not being a God, but the truth is, is that they can't prove that there isn't a God.

Most people who claim to NOT believe in God or Jesus study the bible to try to use it against Christians. One would think if you don't believe in something you wouldn't put much thought or effort into it but it's odd most do. Maybe they really do believe but are scared to admit it because then they are swallowing their pride.

The word is Athiests. And the plural of Christian is Christians. Not Christian's - that would be a contraction of Christian is.
Athiests look at the Bible at face value. They think they know the Bible, but they do not since they have no faith. They're doomed.
