I am an atheist and they keep accusing me of rejectiong God. How can I reject that which I do not believe? I'm not rejectiong God any more than you Christians are rejecting Allah. I simply just don't believe in him. Rejecting God would me seeing God with my own 2 eyes and telling him to screw off. I'm not doing that.

Unbelief is rejecting. It's that simple.
Good day.

No, no, you're not rejecting God. Now me on the other hand, I reject Him all the time. I do believe the Abrahamic God (more like one of the minor goddlings to be for sure) exists, and I think he's a butt-hole(read the Old Testament and you'll see what I mean). So there's the difference people! This guy isn't rejecting your god, he just doesn't think he exists. I on the other hand am rejecting your god, and I haven't lost any sleep over yet. However, I have gained a lot more self-esteem and peace in my life. It's amazing how much better I feel now that I'm a blasphemer. You aught to try it!

No, as long as you fill your lungs with air that you can't see, you cannot reject the maker of that air.
As a baby, when you sucked on your mother's breast for the first time, before anything came out, you didn't reject it, you just knew what to do.
I will believe it when I see it. Right? A lot of people miss out on a lot with that philosophy. And that's okay too.
In your lifetime, you will see things that will make your hair stand on end, and wish you would've built a relationship with the Unfathomable, Timeless Protector, and you will remember what I said.

It seems like you are rejecting religion and therefore rejecting God in the process.
What your talking about is one level of rejection, seeing.
The thing that you've really done here is rejecting belief. That's what really counts.
Christan's who reject Allah reject God, whether they know it or not.

They have it stuck in their heads that not believing is the same as rejecting. You're supposed to believe or burn in hell for all eternity. God's a real jerk in that way.

Ok, you can say that and it is your human right that the God which you don't believe in gave you. If you did see God face to face I'm sure that you wouldn't say "screw off" but the fact is is that you are rejecting the idea of there being a God. That is what people mean.

I think they mean you are rejecting the idea of a God. Hence, it makes sense.
(PS- who says God is a him? Or, can be classified in such a way?)

They can say you reject their idea of God, but implying that such a God exists in the first place and them stating that you reject such a god as an entity is a fallacy as there is no proof of that god.

I guess you reject the *idea* of god.
Just like christians reject the idea of vishnu.

You're right. Too bad my brothers and sisters are ignorant at times. Better off is he who doesnt know God and offends Him, than he who knows him well and offends Him slightly. Until you come to the realization of God or Spirit, any Christian who offends God will enter Hell long before you do [would, might, maybe]. ;)

Your whole "rant" here, makes it impossible for me to reply to you because your question is in the form of a statement, which makes it very ambiguous !
