"The greatest reason for atheism in America today is Christians. Christians who profess Christ with their mouths but deny him with their lives, this is simply what an unbelieving world can not believe"
Carmen, producer of DC Talk
John 12:32 (New Living Translation)
32 And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself.”
Maybe we as Christians need to spend more time lifting up the Christ in us so that he would draw all people to himself. The first time someone sees the face of Christ should be in you.

Those people are not the reason I'm an atheist. I am an atheist because I actually read the holy books, and came to the conclusion that there was no more truth in them than in the Lord of the Rings.
People like the Pat Robertsons simply make me glad I'm not a Christian anymore.

No, Intelligence and a sound education are the reasons for Atheists. Common sense is also another reason. The ability to question. Reading about a 7th grade level. Not believing everything we are told.

Er, the reason I am called an atheist is because I have no belief in a deity.
So 'no', is my answer. Although maybe you know me better than I know myself?....
Actually no, strike that, it's because I'm a deceitful and wicked fool. Ask 'goinupru'.
Hang on, no, she said 'athiests'. I'm 'atheist'.
Phew, that was close.

The main reason for atheism is the fact that there's no evidence for any gods.

"Goin" - I'd think that a 61-year-old would have learned to behave herself like an adult. What is wrong with you? If you're only here to spread childish insults, just go away.

No, atheist have been around for centuries well before those people you mentioned. Even well before Islam was a religion (about 500 AD).

It's a good reason why people may leave Christianity.

Everyone is accountable for their own beliefs and will go to spend eternity with God or the devil so all have a choice and no good at looking at people but need to learn from the bible
