Nothing right? Since you base your belief on faith rather than on factual evidence or plausible theories.
So what's the use of trying to counter Atheistic questions or remarks with Biblical quotes that none of us ever reads?
Why not take a shortcut and discuss with your own arguments?
Why borrow someone else's words?
Why not show us some tangible, foolproof evidence of what you say is right?
Why not prove us wrong with compelling evidence that can only be explained through God and NOTHING ELSE?

Well I am an atheist. People believe in god while there is no evidence. So no amount of logic, or fact could change their minds, as those things are not what they base their beliefs off of.

Your not going to believe me no matter what I say, so why are you asking this question?
I have actually questioned the bible and looked at what evolution has said several times.
It's currently a lot harder to question evolution then the bible b/c scientists are highly respected individuals where as the corruption of the biggest and better known religions have giving all religion a bad name.
You ask why don't we use are words, but you guys do the same thing. The writings of well known individuals are taken as infallible.
Furthermore atheists currently enjoy more liberties.
For example you can teach your beliefs in school whether we agree with them or not and with out counter arguments.
Imagine if the Catholic church could do that.
We would all grow up being taught to believe in what they believe.They would have experts write books that appear to be completely logical especially when there's nobody to challenge them.
That's what's happening with evolution. The fact is scientist don't present the entire story in there books. They don't allow counter arguments. They do with other theories, but not with evolution. Not inside the schools. I oppose religion being taught in school, but I also don't want evolution forced on me.
Scientists are the modern Catholic priests.
Catholic priests use to be the only ones with access to the bible and nobody could question them. In much the same way today you can't argue against scientists.
As long as you start a statement with the phrase "according to scientists" anything you say after that is considered to be true.
That fact is most people don't have the knowledge scientists have nor the ability to research things the way they do.
Does that mean that the average man's observations don't matter? Is he required to go by everything that those with higher education then him tell him to believe in?
Can he not discern for himself what the truth is?

The bible would not provide up me from sinning. because i'm a sinful individual, it really is why i would like a savior. and at the same time as a Christian, I decrease to rubble for all time. i imagine atheists will be astounding, moral human beings, being concerned spouses, tremendous moms and dads. i'm sorry that some christians have advised you in the different case. I in simple terms imagine you're lacking the large image and the deeper, richer that means that a relationship with God grants. It would not make you a nasty individual and if I knew you in my opinion, i'd do my acceptable to be loving in the route of you. Christians shouldn't hate those that trust in a special way than they do. i'm sorry you've encountered a lot judgment and hypocrisy. we are advised to communicate the reality in love. i trust in God and that i trust that your lack of idea in God means you'll spend eternity separated from Him. That motives me grief on your behalf, notwithstanding it would not make me imagine you're a nasty individual.
