That they have never read it or they know nothing at all about it? Many people here who dispute Christianity have mentioned they left because they didn't agree with it. Obviously, there is knowledge involved for that to happen.

They are so brainwashed that they just can't conceive of someone having knowledge of "The Truth" and not accepting it.
Jesus supposedly said, "You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free." These people can't imagine that this is exactly what has happened with many of us atheists.

Not agreeing with Christianity is not always driven by knowledge about.
Often, it's driven by ignorance about it.
I've known some Catholics, for instance, who have dropped out of the Church, saying that they disagreed with this and that about Catholic teaching.
Yet, when I quiz them on what the Church actually teaches about certain things, they invariably flunk the test big-time.
How can you say with authority that you disagree with the Church, I then tell them, when you don't seem to know what it teaches too well?

The devil didn't stop deceiving people after he caused Adam and Eve to fall. If those who leave Christianity were not aware of the fact that we are on a spiritual battlefield, and that there is an enemy of souls busy in the spiritual realm causing people to stumble, then they didn't really know what it was they are leaving behind. Many pastors today come out of antichrist, banker-bought, multilateral seminaries bringing false doctrine, lack of faith in the foundational beliefs of Christianity, and pure witchcraft with them. Many are in no position to do anything other than talk a good game in order to build numbers in social gospel churches. The small independent churches where the truth is still preached don’t have to worry about building programs because most people are so fed up with the watered down religion they grew up with that they don’t want to have anything to do with any church and don’t realize that what has happened to the churches was a carefully thought out plan to break the back bone of our nation which is the church teaching the gospel filled with believers who know and love their God and follow his commandments.

Just because someone went to church does not mean they had understanding. Most of them say they didnt like it because of the Church, or the people that were telling them they were going to hell. There are a lot of Christians that don't know their bible. I find it hard to believe that a 12 year old sits down and reads the bible with full understanding. They think they know Christianity, but they know what someone told them about Christianity.

I wrote my question about Judgement in Islam and Christianity because, I have felt God's powerful presence. God is so mighty and so powerful, its hard to imagine. And you will also feel happy when you feel His presence just as I do.
Its easy to write whatever we feel, but read the bible with some effort and try to understand the truth behind it.

I've personally never said that. I have told people to read the Bible when they have made an obvious mistake. However I even say that to my son and he is a minister. I simply say that because if someone is going to rebuke the words in the Bible, they need to be precise and show what the scriptures really say to prove their point.
Even Satanists read the Bible. Most often non-believers have read the Bible. But you do know that even Satan knows the Bible, but that does not make him right or holy.

Agreed. But holes can be found in everything in life. (Just like the whole- nothing can be proven to a degree of 100% accuracy [as everything is relative] thing).

Reading the Bible is the way to learn about Almighty God. Seeking Him is the only way to find Him. I would never try to make a judgement about a person's degree of honesty or sincerity. That is between said person and Father God.

Have read it and believed in it until I finally woke up and seen it has been changed so many times and see one lie after another. So now if I go to the lake of fire for my thoughts I'll have lots of company.
