God hasnt done anything for us;
but then turn around and say
everything bad in the world is God's fault?
If God is not real in your mind&has never done anything;how then can you try and blame him for everything bad that happens?
Are ya'll trying to imply that mankind is sinless and blameless of anything?

Not everything, and it is not god's fault, it's religion's fault...

Those who don't believe in supernatural beings aren't likely to say that "everything bad in the world is God's fault" unless it's to make a point--such as "Why do god-believers give all the credit to their chosen deity for all the good things that happen but then deny that he/she has anything at all to do with the bad that befalls people?"
Nontheists do not say that mankind is blameless. Mankind is the cause of much of what is wrong with the world. Most of us think people should take MORE responsibility for their actions and waste LESS time trying to figure out why their god is displeased with them or what some invisible supernatural being wants them to do.

"mankind is sinless and blameless" is only relevant in the worldview where there is a God inspired morality (i.e. notion of "sinfulness").
Thus, non-believer can not imply "sinlessness" because non-believer does not use concept of sin (which in essence is God's view on faulty actions/thoughts).
Therefore, you make wrong assumptions about what non-believers imply.

When has an atheist on this forum blamed God for anything? I have never seen it and don't expect to. I have had sick children, I have had emergencies and I did not cry out to the skydaddy nor blame him. You are reaching with this one.
Are you trying to imply that Atheists believe with this circular logic and absurd question?
However, I do blame god's followers for quite a bit, thank you.

Nobody blames God unless they are arguing from the point of view of a religionist. Sometimes you have to argue with someone in their own words to prove how ridiculous their argument is.
For arguments sake, we'll assume God exists. Now we can blame him for the state of the world.
But we know God doesn't exist, so we can say that the state of the world is the way it has to be even though it isn't perfect.

You may have misunderstood when non-believers say everything bad in the world is God's fault. I say that when someone is trying to tell me that god does exist. In short IF god does exist then why does he let bad things to good people.

Ummm... I have never in my life heard a non-believer blame any God or Gods for anything.
On might, however, point out that a believer is being asinine to insist in an all-powerful omnipotent being, and then deny that the being bears responsibility for bad things happening.

Where are you getting your information from... movies and television or your Sunday school teacher? If I don't believe in God then nothing can be God's fault. Duh, logic. If he doesn't exist then he is not responsible for anything. I don't blame God, I blame people that ask stupid questions.

No atheist would blame a non existent being for any problems experienced in life.
Mankind has FULL blame for every bad thing they do.

Maurice,
I asked earlier if you ever tired of pandering this dribble. I guess the answer is no. It seems to me that you enjoy making up things as you go along.
I am non--Christian and I have never blamed your God for the ills of the world.
Have a lovely day
