Good question! Also, haven't you noticed that non-believers also tend to only focus on Christianity?

I think you misunderstand because ... well I won't go into that.

I don't "Keep Talking about HIm[sic][I think you meant HIM, yeah?]"
I talk about the Invisible Man, SkyCritter, SkyGuy, SkyPixie, SkyChappie and things like that because to anyone who uses their brain it's impossible for a god as described in the Bible (which I usually refer to as the Goat Herders' Guide to the Galaxy) to exist.

And if you ever used your strength of character to actually read it from front to back you would leave Xianity in a heartbeat.

[edit]
As an Atheist I have absolutely NO fear of judgement day.
I reckon the lights will go out and that's is.
If there's a god at the end of it I'll ask why didn't convince me, and why he let the scammers like Hinn, Swaggart, Bakker, Copeland and Dollar get away with so much whilst they were ripping off JoeGullible and why does he allow so much suffering especially children suffering abuse and starvation.

Y'all don' t have any idea how much I wish there was an InvisibleSkyPixie taking an interest in the planet's activities.
I just know it'll never happen cos there's obviously NO SkyCritter taking an interest.

Because some of us have open minds and would like to believe there is something out there. and I am Wicca and I do believe there is a one out there but I also believe that god can be a her. I was raised Roman Catholic I went to Church till I was 24. I am now 39 so I have seen it. Also as to people that ask why we pick on Catholic more than any other it is because the people that are try to cram it down every one else. just like the witnesses and now even the Mormons I am sorry but you don't see Wiccins going door to door or Budest . sorry I can't spell

It's important to the atheist to not let believers go unchallenged.

All honest atheists will admit there is some chance that God exists. It follows that there is some chance that when they die, the atheist will meet God face to face. Here is how that conversation may go:
God: Why didn't you believe in Me?
Atheist: You didn't provide enough evidence of your existence.
God: What about Matthew there? He believed and he had the same evidence you had.
Atheist: Matthew and all those other believers were very much mistaken as I told them many times.

Atheists deep down are very much worried by the possibility of a judgment day and they are building their defense.

The words "believe in God" is an incomplete expression of an idea.The idea that people are attempting to express when using the words "I believe in God" is:I believe in the existance of God,which is not the same as saying "I believe in God".The
reason why the words "I believe in God" are absurd,is the same reason that "I believe in Sunday" is nonsense.Finally,who is the "you" who keeps talking about Him,and why Him,since God is androgenous?

A lot of talk about the *concept* and idea of God, and understand it quite well-- most Atheists come from religious backgrounds, so it's understandable. We understand where a religious person is coming from, and why they're asking the questions that they are. It's not from a "God exists" point of view, but a "God as a concept" point of view.

*hands over the toast*

I talk about it because I am interested in religion, I don't discount the possibility of God completely but I would say I am pretty much an atheist. Doesn't mean I'm not curious though!!

Because fantasy is a very powerful medium. Just consider the drawing power of The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars and Harry Potter. and perhaps, just like you, we can't resist the human trait to try and save our fellow man (from delusion).

Because they know GOD's real and that scares them.
