their responses are most always rebellious, laced with profanity, insulting,
its just a bad boy routine, we stand up against what you believe in type of cult.
They just want to be loud and different
wouldnt you agree? Or else why all the Christ insulting questions?

Some of them even have names like Godless, or named after an alcoholic beverage---dumb like Wallbanger---or sex names that they are proud of and obviously it is their idea of wholesome, as kids are on this site.

Hi Lover of GOD!!!
What they don't know is that they are doing this to themselves!!! Unless Satan has him as his own children, ths who offend GOD, is already dead!!! And they don't even know that!!! As death doesn't only come physically, it is also spiritually!
Those who say that they don't believe in a higher power are often the ones that you see, in picketing lines for politics(I'm NOT generalizing), or the ones that have being dependent of their parents( being this ones their higher power), even the persons that they had being following for their Atheist believes has being higher power to this people.
The just want to be offensive, and annoying calling negative attention, polluting younger minds, of those that don't have believers for parents. They prey on them, hunting them, they look for the weak, of minds, hearts and souls!!!
The devil has them trapped already, and there they are feeling all good and dandy, when infact, we Christians know better.
When a person rebels against GOD, and feel superior, they are actually lessening themselves before GOD!!! They
have no idea, that the Devil is using them, and couldn't care less about them!!! So unless they are offsprings of the darkness, they are being fool by Satan.
Promising power, good life, lots of cheap empty sex. Opulence, money and fame, with a filthy mouth against GOD and evrything that GOD has given them!!!!
Or probably they are already Satan's children, coming from darkness to try to help him in his lies and deceptions.
Satan knows very well he will loose this battle!!!! He is already a looser!!! That's why he needs so much help, from his loosers friends!!!
We Christians aknowlege this is happening, but we also have the inmense LOVE and strong conviction, we have GOD in our hearts and with the power that GOD has given all of us that believe in GOD, JESUS THE LORD AND THE HOLY SPIRIT,
Now I use it to rebuke any attempt evil will try to infiltrate, wheather it is direct or subliminal, IN THE NAME OF JESUS THE LORDTHE SON OF GOD, I rebuke you all. Amen.
They will try and try but they will NOT prevail. Let's pray!!!
GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL OF US WHO ARE FOLOWING HIM

Yes, and no, and it doesn't matter anyway.
Yes, for some. Agnosticism and atheism can be among the phases that young people go through in the process of figuring out who they are. The majority of them will return to the religion of their parents soon enough.
No, for others. If atheism were nothing but a symptom of rebellion, then I should have grown out of it a long time ago. I haven't, and neither have many others.
Finally, even if atheism is a symptom of rebellion, THAT DOESN'T MATTER, because it doesn't make atheism wrong or untrue and it doesn't make religion automatically true.

No, we're just smarter than you superstitious theists and if we become offensive, you'll have to forgive us - but if you met a grown man who believed in the tooth fairy or santa and unicorns in the forest you'd become a little sharp with them in time.
Especially when they said things like 'You cant prove there isnt a tooth fairy' or some other ridiculously flawed argument.
I find it very offensive that you think atheism is an attempt to be different when its really the default of humanity as there are so many different faiths and anyone who is a free thinker and dare I say, of a healthy enough mind (ok lets just say smart enough) can become one again even if some religious group sink their claws in to him or her.
Yes, it is a 'smarter than you' idea but so what? If I said the earth was flat you'd consider your notion that it was round a 'smarter than you' idea - who could blame you? Thats how it is with us.

It is not a matter of difference. It is a matter of choice. Everybody has Logic, Intelligence and Rationality. It is how it is applied.
If I want to ask a question, will I not first research it? Or will I jump into the fray without thinking.
The rationality of logical intelligence in asking a question authenticating relative in a belief of receiving an answer.

If Christians need to feel smarter than atheists, let them. I really don't care. If they want to believe there is life after death, that their gods rise from the dead, and that the trouble in the Middle East has anything to do with obscure prophesies, they can do all that too. Again, I am profoundly indifferent. What I get disgusted with is having their gods shoved in my face day after day, from the slogan on the money to the Pledge of Allegiance. I just want them to be quiet, and keep their oddball beliefs to themselves.

You should be intelligent enough to realize that questioning your religion is not an insult. Your faith should be strong enough that you could defend your position without feeling insulted. I have never saw any of the profanity that you accuse Atheist of. Maybe an occasional Hell or Devil but you guys invented those words.

An Athiest is a person who does not believe in a higher power. People don't decide what they believe based on wanting to be different or rebellious.

You are now generalizing, and nearing the area of where I will insult you. You are also playing the victim...I find this very tiresome. You are fishing for people to denounce you, to prove what you think is your point about our mockery. This is an ignorant question that is not worthy of a legitamate or thoughtful answer.

No haha it is based on reason and logic. It is sometimes found by rebellion but rebellion is just self examination I dont see what is so wrong with it. But most atheist are highly educated and are not stupid kids as im sure you will say they all are.
