Atheism is a lack of belief in a divine being(s) of some sort. Because there is no given epistemology in that definition, many Atheists use science. Thus, even if every single scientific theory lost favor, Atheism is not refuted.
For theists in particular, the point of contention is not, "Science versus the Bible." It isn't one or the other, if one goes down the other wins.
Atheists seem to understand this. What will it take for believers to understand this as well?
And if you believers are out there that read these sections and understand the issue, could you say something? Your fellow believers might listen to you.

If they won't listen to continual explanations of it, then there's no hope. They choose to ignore facts, even when facts are shoved right in their face.

Christian run a very good propaganda machine. Everyone speaks of a God and they have us arguing about their religion. Atheist has no religion but see life without the constraints of a middle man called religion.
Atheist realize running your life with God and religion is like driving a car while drunk. Religion gets in the way of reason and mental skills so society fall in decline.
Religion is delusional that impairs thinking like a person on drugs or alcohol while driving.

By negating falseness you eventually arrive at the truth--that's how science works--& that is how religion should also work.The myths in the Torah may be interesting--but we know they are false--(the world just isn't flat & standing on pillars!!Samual1-Ch2v8)--However both Christ & Buddha taught their followers to negate their egos--by dismissing all aspects of themselves that were subject to change--the body,the mind etc--leaving them with "I AM"--Buddha taught that peace can only come from within you--Christ said-the Kingdom of God is within you (Luke 17:21)

I found it's too much work even to get some of them to *spell* "atheism" (which, after all, comes from "theos" - the greek word for a god).

The most fitting people to teach Atheism to are those who have been abused and alienated by organized religion. Also, they must be open to it and fairly intelligent.

In 1 word......Denial!
Most atheists talk about God so much that at least the conversation is interesting (kinda an irony that the one thing their trying to get away from is always the hottest topic with them!!!)
God is with you always no matter how you FIGHT it!!!
I ⥠JESUS & He â¥'s me & u 2!
P.s. I was born with HIM in my heart/ not a science book!
I'll die the same way!!!!!!!!!!!

Some people choose to remain willfully ignorant. There's no point in trying to teach a person who truly doesn't want to learn anything.

Athiesm only exists in the minds of Christians, once Athiests start believing in it they become semi-Christians because they are adopting a Christian mantra, Athiesm does not exist and neither does God, these are non-issues
