I mean we don't think its completely your fault. Everyone is born an Atheist until you are Taught what to believe. if you are born on a deserted island and you are taught that a man inside a coconut created the universe and everything in it and you never get off that island..what do you think you will always believe? It just annoys us that you simply disregard anything that contradicts your beliefs. I mean you guys think that we just become Atheists overnight or something. But unlike you we question everything and research the answers from more then Just one source...over and over again. We don't hate you we just wish you would pay attention. Is that too much to ask?

I hate ignorance and I hate mindless adherence to theological dogma but no I don't hate the unfortunate victims of those afflictions.

Oh I thought Atheists hated us Christians. I see a lot of questions on here that bash Christians. If people want to be Atheists then its fine with me. I know not everybody in the world is going to share the same religion/beliefs/faiths as I do.
Also I'm totally offended by stinkythebadferret5 comment. I'm not arrogant nor am I close minded. Takes one to know one stinkythebadferret5!

Derek J,
We are not born atheist. No one is. Inside each of us we are all aware of something more...atheists have been taught to be atheists. You have it backwards.
Of course it would annoy you that we believe as we do. That, my friend, is your own conscience nagging at you, the same one you refuse to listen to anymore.
Oh, we pay attention, but what I wish, and so many of us do, is that people would actually try to see our side of the matter, and actually take the time to question what they believe(or don't believe) to see and prove the position they have taken.

That's so nice that you don't hate us. Thanks dude.
We don't hate you either, cuz the one book that we learn everything from tell us to love everyone, and do good to those who despise you.
Hey, you know that means we Christians and you Atheiest have something in common, we don't hate each other, and therefore one that takes this principle from the Bible.

Gee, I feel all warm and fuzzy. Nothing makes my day like being told, "I don't hate you, but I think you're weak and a fool and too stupid to look at more then one source in life."

Speak for yourself and not all Atheists, im sure theres some atheists out there that despise christians for being so arrogant and narrow minded. Im a Pagan, and I detest christians for what theyve done in the past, and for the ignorance they spread in the present.

It will never happen so why keep trying.
I think you even know you cannot destroy the faith of a believer.
The only thing that seems to destroy a believer's faith is a tragedy in life that he blames on God.
