PSALMS 10:4 In his pride the wicked does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God.
PSALMS 14:1 The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.

This is a simple example for a logic flaw many christians are prone to.
What the bible says is "The wicked does not believe in god. The fool does not believe in god."
BUT
This does not mean "Those who do not believe in god are wicked and / or fools".
That would be a logical fallacy.
Apart from that, the bible is just another book. It is written by men and full of ambiguous mumbo-jumbo.

I think nothing of it. I'm an atheist, so by definition I don't believe in god. Therefore, anything said or written about my lack of faith is inconsequential. Besides, those words don't even ring true. Some of the best people I know are atheists. On Sundays, while the masses are gathered inn church, they are volunteering at our local children's hospital. Is that a corrupt action? Is it vile to help take care of children strickenn with cancer?

psalms 10:4 In their arrogance the christians did not see John Lennon as the savior and persecuted him.. ( He was shot by a christian, Chapman once idolized Lennon until he became christian)
Psalms 14:1 Julius Cesar who found opportunity to change the outcome of prophecy would call himself god and through the roman catholic church succeed... Those doing good deeds outside of the church would be called corrupt for they are not under Cesar' control or command.... the hippies marched for peace and they were called corrupt including being murdered to be silenced....ex: Berkley College

It's what I would expect from the bible.
It's called an ad hominem argument. When you can't dispute the obvious truth of something like Atheism you resort to attacking Atheists. To say that all Atheists are corrupt, that all of our deeds are vile, and that not a single one of us does good is obviously false. Just like much of the rest of the bible.

"PSALMS 14:1 The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good."
Thomas Edison and Marie Curie were atheists.
Try again.

Kinda funny. It is smart to put stuff like that in a faerie tale that you want people to believe.
I like 2 Kings 2:23-24 better. God sends two bears to kill 42 kids for calling Elisha "bald head." It really shows just what kind of tyrant you follow. I can't figure out why you would, even if it were true.

Matthew 7:1-2,
Judge not that you be not judged, for how you judge, so shall you be judged.
Why do you persist in arguing with someone who wishes to only bring you a stumbling block to trip over?
The only battle between Good and Evil, is if you become part of the evil.
God says that "..if you are luke warm, I will spit you out of my mouth".
He would rather you be hot or cold. ( All good or all evil )
Love one another, forgive one another, and teach one another, in kindness, truth, and mercy.
By challenging a non believer, ( when God said that HE would blind them ) you are not showing the love that Jesus taught, and the apostles preached.
You cannot maintain mans traditions, and Gods principles, at the same time.
God bless

Its funny that In Mathew 5:22 Jesus says
But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment, and whoever says to his brother, 'Raqa,' will be answerable to the Sanhedrin, and whoever says, 'You fool,' will be liable to fiery Gehenna
So Jesus says calling someone a fool is such a severe sin that it is punishable by hell yet Christians are constantly engaged in the worst form of hateful bigotry, calling atheists fools supposedly based on the bible. Can you say the word hypocrite? Who is the real fool? The one who rejects a superstitious fairy tale or the one who believes it whole-heartedly yet violates every rule it stands for.

I think you might want to look up some stuff about pride and not judging. Your relationship with your god is your own affair, and when you use it as a cudgel of criticism to bash others you show stunning hypocrisy.
To put it another way: Do you honestly think Jesus would make this post?

well first off im not a fool im not an athiest i am agnostic but the definition of a fool is one who is deficient in judgment and acts without sense or understanding so you must be the fool then to ask athiest what they think of the scriptures when athiest dont believe in the bible. seems like you acted without sense and understanding not them
