Atheists just act that way because they don't want to think of the real deal or have to explain themselves. Its easier to just say that God doesn't exist without getting into emotions, energy and creation.
There are so many factors that go into God that no human can ever get it right. So it's easiest to say that it doesn't exist instead of using your brain.

Why would you ask such a question? You will be inundated with sarcastic and arrogant answers if only because you have made multiple spelling errors in your query and elaboration. The "simple-minded" atheists are going acknowledge you with scorn. Additionally, your assumptions regarding nontheists are ridiculous, since, naturally, as humans, nonbelievers have the same cares and considerations for family, friends, humanity,, the Earth and the Cosmos as do theists. Why should accepting the scientific concepts of the origin of the Universe and evolution cause a person to become any less human than one who, perhaps wrongly, believes in the creation myth?

You believe what you believe because that's what you've been taught to believe. It's probably been drummed into you since birth, if not the exact denomination to which you now belong, then a similar one that better serves your personal need for self-aggrandizement. What can be more simple-minded than that?
And going to Church every Sunday, maybe including the occasional token reference to the poor and the hungry to your evening prayers, hardly qualifies you as a Christ-like humanitarian. Get down off your carefully constructed pedastal, get out there and do something to actually make the world a better place, like volunteer at a soup kitchen or senior center- no, cutting a check every week to your church doesn't count, nor does praying for sinners to see the light- and maybe you'll find that you no longer have time to sit in judgment of others.

I think the point you're trying to make, although it's a pathetically weak one, is that as long as you keep calling out to God, you cannot feel that way.
Now it would be harsh of me to claim that you are indeed quite selfish, or that you're very bitter about the world, or that you're very arrogant, and a very boring everyday person. But even the nicest people are harsh from time to time.
Just because you chose to believe in God doesn't make you better than someone who choses not to. At least not until you're both standing at the Pearly Gates awaiting St. Peter's voice to announce God's judgment on your soul. You, hopefully, still have a very long and interesting life ahead of you where yours or anyone else's choice of belief is of absolutely no consequence.
So please don't be so harsh. Yes you believe in God. As it happens, I do too. But I wouldn't want you on my side if you're going to be like this. If you want to claim to be better than them, you have to actually BE better than them.

Trust me, you're simple minded enough.
You have no idea what an atheist's philosophy is, you have no idea what we are like, and you are making up false assumptions about us because you hate us.
You are a fool. You are a vile human being. You are an idiot. Your god must be so proud of you, you hateful little ******.
Have a nice day.

LOL.. because you think too highly of yourself and can't imagine a reality where "you" don't exist?
If I only cared about myself, I would not donate to charities, volunteer my time, or take care of my children beyond their basic needs for survival.
Science offers real solutions and attempts to answer real questions based on scientific evidence. It can't answer the question "why am I here" because it doesn't have an answer. And there doesn't need to be an answer. I have somehow managed to live 34 years of my life quite happily without needing an answer that question. If that is simple-minded, so be it.

I am sick of people of a religious persuasion telling me, as an Atheist, that we are too lazy to THINK!! I've done NOTHING BUT THINK on the matter. I've read the books, I've listened to the so called experts (on both sides)!! I've formed my own decision which happens to be completely different from my parents and the rest of my ENTIRE family! Stop telling me that I've not thought this through! Simple minded!!? HOW DARE YOU!!!!! Worry about just myself!? What crap!! I worry constantly about everything and everyone around me, about how my actions affect others!! I'm one of the few people I know that can usually see both (often more) points of view! DON"T TELL ME ATHEISTS ARE SIMPLE MINDED because it's complete NONSENSE!
Damn it! You made me lose my temper, I'd been doing so well........

What are you complaining about - you are simple minded. Atheists are multi-dimensional. Theists have one state of mind. They are one dimensional. To show you how simple minded you are, atheists are not the ones who do not believe in god - those are the agnostics. Atheists are asking for proof. You are a good example of why we ask. How could some one who actually thinks come up with the garbage you have spewed out here. It is a good example of complete lack of conscious rational thought processes, which is what theists are best known for. You would make a good poster child for a pro atheists rally.

Considering the volume of spelling and grammatical errors in your question, I would say: Don't worry in 4 or 5 year's time you'll be able to do just as you please.
You'll also be old enough to vote then.
