Why are Bible-Believing Christians picking on Atheists?

It is not enough for some to not believe, the fact that some worship the true and living God is just too much to stand for many of them. Like when a cat gets in to a nest of mice, they don't kill them for food, only for the pleasure of watching the suffering.
Remember the word ‘atheist’ is nothing but a politically correct term for one God calls a fool. “The fool has said in his heart, there is no God.”

I don't think they all are, but there are those out there who use this forum as a place to hide behind a screen name and berate others. I'm all for constructive critizism, as long as its in a form of debate, not just picking each other apart based on things that have nothing to do with belief or non-belief (like saying "you're stupid" as part of an arguement.

Because "true bible-believing" Christians will often take any comment that goes against their belief as "picking on them". Not only that but "true bible-believing" Christians often think that because they believe something is wrong that it means that it should be illegal. This is not acceptable and extremely arrogant.

The atheists are posting on almost every question in the Religion & Spitituality site. They must believe or they would not care enough to check out what we are talking about. Remember "Love the sinner, Hate the sin."

An atheist was taking a walk through the woods.
What majestic trees! What powerful rivers! What beautiful animals!" he said to himself.
As he was walking alongside the river he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him.
He turned to look and saw a 7 foot grizzly bear charge towards him.
He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder
and saw that the bear was closing in on him.
He looked over his shoulder again and the bear was even closer.
He tripped and fell on the ground.
He rolled over to pick himself up but saw the bear right on top of him,
reaching for him with his left paw and raising his right paw to
strike him.
At that instant the Atheist cried out to the Lord.
Time stopped, the bear froze, the forest was silent. A bright light
shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky, "You deny my
existence for all of these years, teach others I don't exist, and even
credit creation to a cosmic accident. Do you expect me to help you out
of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer?"
The atheist looked directly into the light, "It would be hypocritical
of me to suddenly ask you to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps
could you make the BEAR a Christian?"
"Very well," said the voice.
The light went out.
The sounds of the forest resumed. And then the bear dropped his right
paw, brought both paws together and bowed his head and spoke: "Lord,
bless this food, which I am about to receive through Christ our Lord,
Amen."

I'm glad they do, and I hope they keep it up. Christians need to be challenged for the sake of growth and strengthening.
This spot would be so very dull and useless if only one side was allowed to be aired. But everyone needs to toughen-up...no "reporting" people who happen to disagree with you. Keep it coming, Athiests.

There are a lot of whiny people out there. For example, there's an idiot on Wikipedia, burning through account, whining about persecution because he can't use the site for his personal soapbox. Perhaps you know him.

Sockpuppetry and personal abuse. Apparently, he's devoid of morals.

I wonder what made them come here..Is there some part that wants to find God? All this irrational anger, is it protesting too much? The line they give about "keeping Christians out of government"..Yeah..this forum will do that..If they were sincere they would be devoting themselves to lobby and petition the government..not typing rants and insults in a forum.

There are Christians who try to get Creationism taught in science classes, or try to pass laws based on their religion, or ban books, or whatever. I feel I have to challenge the religion itself. Don't take it personally.
