They don't want to, for whatever reasons.
As for those who answered this question with insults...
This person did not insult you at all. It simply asked why and made statements about their belief in God. YOU are the ones who can't handle it and showed a lack of respect and tolerance by personal attack. Come to the light. I'll be praying for you too.

And who said that I want to go to heaven?
Do you know why I don't have faith? Because I saw a bloody war around me that killed me inside, because I cried for help, I cried for answers and I got nothing, because I never felt that love or power or wisdom everyone is talking about, because my brother died in front of me, because in my town they're making political events ic Church, because in my country I can't go to church because there are two different Orthodox churches for two different nationalities and those churches hate each other, because I was five years old and scared and alone and God wasn't there... Need more reasons?
And to tell you something... Questions like this insult me. It's easy to love god and Jesus and things like that when you have everything you need. It's easy to call me and someone like me a bad person because we don't believe when you haven't seen the half of what I have. It's easy to go to Church and say a prayer or two when you have a churche to go to. This question is really insulting, and rude, and you should be shamed to ask something like this!

I have a great deal of faith, just not in those things in which you have faith. Life without an underlying set of assumptions about how the world works would be impossible.

I recall what Mark Twain said about faith (and I'm paraphrasing a bit here): Faith is believing in something you know just ain't so.
I prefer things which can be seen, touched, heard, tasted, felt, and proved scientifically. That pretty much rules out your gods. Sorry.

I thought you said you weren't asking anymore questions? i guess you couldn't stand not preaching to people who don't believe as you do.
Inanna Loves you! I'll pray to her that you be found. I mean saying your lost is silly since you know where you are.

It is very funny how rude other people can be when they are questioned about something that they have NO understanding of.
FAITH: believing in your creator even though you can not see Him (yet), but you can feel His presence all around you. When you do something wrong, He chastises you.
When you do something good for a fellow human, He blesses you in ways that a person can not imagine.
And for those that refuse Him, eternal damnation.
Gods conviction on all you unbelievers.
Gods blessings on all His children.

No disrespect to you and I don't want to be rude but you say 'Jesus is real and he loves you', so I take it you have seen him and he told you that verbally and to your face, or, is that what you believe this because you read it in the bible.
Believing is one thing
Seeing is another
Would you mind expanding on what you define as to be evidence of what is 'real'. Thankyou.

I will meditate for you, you seem very lost.
Spiritual enlightenment does not come from insulting the beliefs of others,that is what you are doing by being condescending thinking that we need your prayers.
I have a different beliefs system than yours, just like everyone else that does not share your belief, it does not make it right or wrong, just simply a different path.
PLEASE LEARN TO RESPECT OTHERS.

I have faith just not in the Christian God. I have faith in people and believe that if we work together we can have peace
Keep the Peace
