Because they are looking at your avatar. They think "how could God let such a tragedy take place."

Athesis is not a word.

Which god. For all you know we may be cursing ra, zeus , quetzalcoatl, or odin. How come when someone says the word "god" you always assume it's the christian god.

btw i say OMG as a figure of speech. It means nothing to me. For me it's a nicer way of saying "oh s**t."

Because its mainstream. That's why, listening to modern popular music, you hear the same themes, same curse words, etc. Atheists just go with the flow, so they say whatever someone else would say.

If they are atheists and says that I am sure it doesn't have a religious mening for them just a common english and even international Phrase to say when something suprisingly happens for example.

Because it is a fairly standard English expression. I sing "God save the Queen", not "Should an entity which theists consider..."

I could barely make out your question for the spelling.

No offense.

Atheists. Hm. I take it you want to make sense; out of a nonsense platform.

Kinda reminds me of every hood in creation.

Each one thinks himself, within himself, a Holy Knight.

Yup.

Pure darkness.

It is a very common expression in the English language. I mean, when people say "oh crap!" they rarely if ever mean "feces." It's just a very common phrase.

(Note: I don't say "thank god" or "goddammit" or any other expression similar to this.)

Because deep in their spirit they know GOD exists but their stupid pride blinds them to the Grace of GOD.

Because your friends were likely raised in a Chrisitan home, and such explitives are ingrained on their psyche, atheist or not.
