How are Christians supposed to "Shake the dust and walk away from the atheists" when they keep bugging us?

Question

This religion and spiritual section is polluted with atheists.

They remind me of my 5 year old son.
DAD, DAD, DAD, DADDY, DADDY, DADDY...

Answer 1

The presence of atheists actually is quite faith affirming.
It was said long ago that those who were ridiculers would be abundant in the time of the end, and lo and behold, it is true.
2 Peter 3:. 3 For YOU know this first, that in the last days there will come ridiculers with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires
Jude 17 As for YOU, beloved ones, call to mind the sayings that have been previously spoken by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ, 18 how they used to say to YOU: “In the last time there will be ridiculers, proceeding according to their own desires for ungodly things.” 19 These are the ones that make separations, animalistic [men], not having spirituality.

So, why it is that believers get frustrated or angry with the ridiculers known as atheists, is beyond me.
I welcome their existence, as proof that the Bible was reliable.

Answer 2

If you can't handle the views of others, then I suggest that you find a place where you can find solace in your own beliefs.
This is Religion and Spirituality, note that Spirituality is not just confined to the teachings of Religious groups.
Maybe Atheists are Gods way of testing your faith?
Did you think of that.
Besides all that I see a lot of questions aim squarely at Atheists, so who is "bugging" who?

Answer 3

Christ's Final Charge to us before the assention (Matthew 28:18-20) -Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." We as Christians aren't supposed to shake the dust and walk away from anybody who is obviously lost. . . And so what if they bug us, they might get something out of a religious answer! That might be why there's few christians in the Spiritual/Religious Section. Remember (Matthew 5:14-16) - "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. "

Answer 4

I used to be an atheist before but thankfully not now, 100 % believer now and the atheists here that have not converted yet are only here for one reason, to learn more about God because they are fence sitters still not sure if they want to jump in. REAL atheists like I used to be would never hang out in a place such as this that is full of religion. in their questions and answers they will deny it but that is only so their friends that see their questions an answers will not make fun of them.they will put up a very strong anti-God front but a front is all it really is.....100 % here are secretly fence sitters,..no true atheists here so keep preaching, they really do want to hear it.....HOWEVER if you see violations of yahoo guidelines please report 100% of the abuses, they can sit on the fence but only decently !

Answer 5

I've been an atheist for fifty-one years. Can you even imagine how much Christian B.S. I've had to endure? Everywhere I go, everything I do, is totally polluted with Christians. As far as I know, this is the only place on the Internet where atheists and Christians can meet to discuss their differences. If you can't stand honest dialog, please visit any of thousands of "Christians Only" websites. This one is dedicated to the free exchange of ideas from anyone who wishes to contribute. Begone bigot...

Answer 6

try doing it metaphorically. stop asking the hot button questions that are intended to offend or that you know will get a standard atheist answer, and try for questions that are meant to make people think - or ask questions that anyone can have an opinion on like current events.

atheists aren't bugging anyone - they just want to participate in this free forum like everyone else. their behavior is not always polite, but some of us have the same issues.

stop bludgeoning atheists with our convictions because the world is always going to have people who don't believe in God. recall that sometimes the only bible that people see will be the words of your mouth and the truth of your life...

Answer 7

This is a section open to the public and last I checked both christians and atheists are part of that public.

When is the last time an atheist came up to you on the street and 'bugged' you? I'll wager it's never happened, so who is whining now?

Answer 8

Dude, there are lots of places you can go that membership is closed. This is an open forum about religion. It is not the personal property of Christians. We reject religion so this is an appropriate place to discuss that. If you don't like it, go find a place where you will only hear one side.

Answer 9

Am I musty? We can all talk about religion on here. It is called Religion and Spirituality. Not Christians Only.

Answer 10

The whole point of atheism is illogical. They spout off so strongly on something they do not believe in. How can a group of people so rudely defend something in a religious forum. Have you ever run into an atheist who is caring and kind? 99% of them use the same dull lines(fairy tales, delusional). What a poor misguided group of selfish entitled jerks. They don't like anybody(religion) telling them how to live because they are so "free", because they in their infinite wisdom believe they have got all the answers. No christian I have met, will tell you they know 100% all the answers. What a leap of faith atheists profess something they don't believe in. It would be hard to imagine someone so strongly defending that there is no magical talking kangaroo, yet atheists so strongly spout off about what they don't believe in, it sure shows their charachter
