Hate and disappointed are terms that do not relate to the subject at all.
I would feel quite sorry for you, as you would be missing out on so much here and now, and in the life that would have been available to you had you but believed in Jesus the Christ, that GOD sent to save you and to pay the punishment for the sins of the whole world...
I guess it is to be wasted on you, How very sad indeed.
But then there may still be hope, if you will but believe, and all that can be yours, try it you will really like it

No,
but you should take an astronomy class and get back to us.
People have always wanted proof that God exists,
if you can't see God after AST101, I don't know what to tell you, accept ; reading the a book made by humans will only convince the ignorant.
God is right in front of you !

Good greif, no mate. I wouldn't and don't hate you. That is your choice. I am Pagan. My kids are atheist. We do not allow our views to come between us. It is called mutaul respect.
If you want to be an atheist that is the way you walk. It is not for me to hate you or be disappointed in you.
Peace.

No.
The Following Scriptures from the Bible are fulfilled in your life.
Jesu is the True Light. The LIGHT shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
Jesus came into the world, and the world was made by HIM, and the world knew (believe) HIM not.
Jesus Loves You. Come unto HIM.

No; instead I would give you reasons for why you should ...
The Christian God was very careful to prove himself when he had the Bible written. He wanted to make sure you would recognize him as God when he set his plan of salvation into effect. What he did is predict the future. No person on earth, no medium or psychic, can claim the accurate prediction rate of God. God gave times, people's names, and place names so we can check out history and verify his work. He even gave us the name of a historical figure centuries before the fact!
Now if you wanted everyone to know that you, as God, was going to appear as a human being, you would explain what you were like so you would be recognized. You would put in the city of your birth, where you grew up, what kinds of deeds you would do, your temperament, your purpose, even how you would die.
God did all that in the Old Testament. It was all in written form four hundred years before Jesus' birth. The New Testament gospels follow Jesus and point out some of the places where He fulfilled the prophecies.
If you haven't been exposed to biblical prophecy, before, let me give you several examples.
Daniel recounts in chapter eleven of his book of having received knowledge of future events. Written in the 6th century B.C., Daniel gives us an accurate description of events winding down to 199-198 B.C. He foresaw Alexander the Great's kingdom split up into four factions. The prophecy predicts details of the conflict between the Ptolemy and Seleucid dynasties. Skeptics cannot believe the account was written before 164 B.C. Unlike Nostradamus' cryptic writings, Daniel chapter eleven describes plain schemes and conquests that are easily followed by the student of history.
Can you name the next president of the United States just two years ahead of time? Can you guess what name a friend will come up with for her new baby barely nine months into the future? No? Well, how about naming a king who will not appear for another 150 years, and name his nation? The prophet Isaiah did just that. In 44:28-45:1 God tells us that Cyrus, king of Persia, will decree regarding Jerusalem, "You shall be built," and regarding the temple, "Your foundation shall be laid." In 2 Chronicles 36:22-Ezra 1:1-3 we find that Cyrus did indeed come to power and called the Jews to return to Israel and rebuild Jerusalem.
Can you predict when the Messiah (God's chosen one) will appear in the world? Daniel 9:24-25 tells us that the Messiah would die 483 Hebrew years after "the going forth of the command to restore and build Jerusalem." Neh. 2:1-8 tells us that King Artaxerxes issued that decree (March 5, 444 B.C.). 483 prophetic years (360 days to a year in the calendar of the ancient world) and seven days later, Jesus the Messiah was crucified.
How could a prophet accurately predict the dismantling of a world empire hundreds of years beforehand? How could a prophet give us the name, nation, and decree over a hundred years prior to the king's birth? How could a man foretell to the year the life and death of Jesus unless he really heard the voice of God? (I can't even predict which shirt I'll wear tomorrow.) These are only a small sample of prophecy in the Bible. One quarter of the Bible is prophecy. Several archaeological discoveries have verified these and many other accounts. God has proven his existence wonderfully.
What Do You Think?
a. Nearly a quarter of the Bible is prophecy. Do you believe that consistent, accurate reporting of facts with names, places, and events hundreds of years in advance demonstrates a God-like intelligence?
b. Most of us have no problem guessing or even gambling on various outcomes. In what ways do the prophecies mentioned above go beyond guessing?
c. The coming of Jesus Christ fulfilled around one hundred prophecies. Another one hundred or so prophecies yet remain regarding his Second Coming. How many prophecies must accurately be accomplished before someone should take God seriously?
