do you stop looking because of that obstacle?
Many ex - Christians say that they do not believe in God because they find the bible illogical and the Trinity contradictory. But instead of exploring other religions, many give up altogether? Why let one sour grape turn you off the rest?

Jesus said that people refuse to come to him (ie Jesus) because their deeds are evil, and they don't want to be exposed by the Light of God's Truth.
People run from God, and having once known the Truth, there is no place else to look for answers, but the lies of the secular world.

God lives within. People only call themselves Atheist because they distrust religion, not that God ever turns His back on anyone.
Christianity does not disprove any religion. When people finally understand how the Holy Spirit of God influences their life, they will KNOW that God is not a belief. Then they can accept all of the truth of God.
Many people call themselves "Christian" and still doubt the truth of God.
How about trusting in the temple that God built?

Because most of the Abrahamic religions (Islam, Protestantism, Catholicism, etc; I hardly see a difference in them) have so instilled the unfortunate people with the "one god or no god" propaganda that they do not realize that there are other choices out there.

To extend your analogy:
I, you are house shopping for a beach house, once you realize that someone is trying to sell you shore front land in Kansas is scamming you, you are probably not interested in the guys telling you you can get shore front properly in South Dakota, Kentucky or New Mexico.

With all due respect, your trying to get them to believe in something that sounds like a Lord Of The Rings episode...

Well, I have found that most atheists I know have explored many other religions and ideas, myself included.

Most of us have. And, trust me.... if I'm too liberal to be a Christian - ain't no way I'm a Muslim. That's really precious that you suggested it, though.
