Here's the thing. Even if there were a God, atheists would still deny it. Why cause they are contrary.
This causeth church people irkage. Therefore some of them are uncomfortable with the attitude of atheists.
I myself feel uncomfortable with church people because no matter what you ask them they put a spin on it and make excuses for Jesus and his false prophecies. They cannot admit one thing.
To be quite honest with you, church people give me the creeps. But no, they aren't insane, just creepy.

I feel very uncomfortable talking to inmates of a psychiatric ward. Does that make me insane?
We feel uncomfortable talking to Atheists because we know they don't believe in Providence. That means Atheists believe they can commit any kind of crime and it will make no difference whatsoever the only goal is to evade detection. If they can do that then they are free, scott free.

Hey, welcome back -- where've you been the past week or so? I was wondering what'd happened to you.
And as is fairly obvious, this is one God-believer who has no problem talking to atheists. Why should I? We may not agree on the existence of God or the need to accept Christ as your Savior, but we're both still people. I can talk to almost anybody, irregardless of their beliefs. It's called being courteous.
Oh, and BTW, please stop implying or stating that Christians are insane or sick. Clearly we are neither. However, those who accuse others of being crazy are frequently paranoid themselves.
You'll have me worried about *your* sanity if you keep this up.

An argument can be made for insanity just by virtue of believing in anything so incredibly ridiculous as the bible god, so I guess my answer is "that ship sailed long before the conversation took place"

Many atheists feel uncomfortable talking to believers in my experience. As soon as they find out I'm a Christian...things change. So, yeah...you gotta wonder!

Not really. Leo Festinger in his book "On cognitive dissonance" said that one of the things people try to do the hardest is avoid situations where they have their inner beliefs challenged and where they have to act in ways they disagree with.
To many of the people who are actively evil in their beliefs towards atheists, but still try to treat humans with respect, the idea of treating an atheist (who they may see as demonic or the devil himself) as human is just too big a step, so rather than behave in a way they see as contrary to themselves (by treating a human as less than human or treating an "evil" atheist as if they were a human) they just avoid it altogether.
Not sick behavior, just avoidant.

It is a sign that they have studied history.

I don't think I would word it this strongly but I would say that it is not a good sign.
