Proverbs1:7;9:10
Obviously when they deny the LORD, they don't fear or reverence Him.
Or is it just that their wisdom/knowledge is different than Godly or Spiritual wisdom/knowledge?

Doc, Calling God evil or His Word evil is blasphemy. There are conscequences of that. So? You should be afraid.

Well look at it this way there are two kinds of
operating systems The Kingdom of God and the World system. The World system you learn as an infant and it's with you all threw your life. The Kingdom of God system you won't know about it or learn about it until someone prays for you or ministers to you and you get saved. Then according to the scripture."Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth" Now that's a new life style your learning.
Remember this, the other life style you were born in. Born in what? (SIN) So if you are already in Sin, Satan is happy because he has them already the atheists and anybody else that disagrees with the word of God.

This "concern of the Lord" is a marginally atypical thought. adult males who're/have been slaves or captives have feared their grasp or guards. Treating God as something that must be feared is an anthropomorphism of God. that's giving human traits to God. certainly the actual worldwide has its hazards, yet to circulate approximately your existence or existence in concern is a disgusting way of existence or existence. This "God" of the previous testomony is something that we don't journey in the twenty first Century. ought to that be by way of fact we comprehend reason and result lots greater beneficial? ought to that is that we at the instant are not superstitious or do not make connections between happenstances that have not something to do with real motives and effects? My "information/understanding" is predicated upon reason and good judgment, not superstition. And no, i'm not an atheist, yet i'm what's called a Deist. in spite of the shown fact that, i think of that an atheist could physique of suggestions your question in a reasonably comparable way. in reaction on your riposte, you look imbedded in a rumour non secular mode, quoting historic texts that neither you nor every person which you have ever met or widely used has witnessed for certainty. Nature's God is obtainable for all to work out. it rather is lots greater grand than the God as offered in the previous testomony or this form of writings of the ancients. i don't comprehend your age, history or training, in spite of the shown fact that curiously which you're emotional to a fault approximately this thought in a God that's something below Nature's God. Oh, and as others have stated formerly, you question does not actual belong in the philosophy area. Philosophy bargains with certainty, not blind faith.

Just to reiterate, atheism is the belief that there is no god or spiritual being of any kind. Closely related is nontheism which is the denial for a need of any god even if there was one anyway. With that in mind ...
I do not fear the lord because there is no lord to fear. I do not revere something that does not exist. It is like investing your time in something pointless and baseless. As for being smart, you are presupposing because people do not believe in god, they are actually stupid. This assumption is again baseless and pointless. Most atheists get along just fine without your biases.

Psalm 14:1 says that "the fool has said in their heart there is no God."
The word fool in the dictionary means "a person without sense or judgement, person who acts unwisely, a person who has been deceived or tricked; dupe, a feeble-minded person."
-----World Book Dictionary
Smart people are those who have faith in God.
John 3:16
Romans 10:9
Revelation 3:23
Romans 6:23
Have faith dear friends in God.

Contrary thought; just because a person claims to be a 'Christian', does not make them Christ like presently. Those type of Christians and atheist may work from a similar starting point; man being a 'god' (Gen. 3:5-6, John 10:34). They may not have 'passed the tests' presently for true Christians.

Because atheists understand that god was invented by man to control people. Having this understanding frees you to learn and educate yourself in all types of fields of knowledge that would otherwise be considered 'blasphemous'. Have a good day.

If we're atheists, why would we fear or reverence Jesus? By definition, it's not gonna happen.
If you have knowledge, you tend not to fear. We fear that which we don't understand.

Obviously, we're working from a different frame of reference than bible believers. As are Pagans, Wiccans, Buddhists, Hindus, etc.

There was a lot of wisdom and knowledge before Christianity was invented. That fact alone makes your assertion ridiculous.

maybe it is the fear of god...but why does it have to be to the god that you know...i have my own god, separate from your god or anyone else's god...as soon as you can see that we can have different gods, because we can only see from our own point of view and that is very much different than any other point of view, you will be able to move on spiritually
