well CR there is a difference I share my beliefs with you because I think there will be consequences to your way of thinking and I don't want that to happen to anyone. But if atheists are right then it doesn't matter if I'm a Christian so why do so many atheists try to evangelize to me?

because satan is also busy at work, but he can be defeated, so keep talking to and asking of the atheist, then sooner or later he won't exist or maybe they will become aware of ignorance

Whats a matter? Don't you like having a taste of your own medicine for a change? If you don't want an atheistic answers to your theistic questions, don't post them in a public forum.
You say, "don't you have something better to do than attack Christians."
If you consider answers, which contradict your view or point out the flaws in your claim, an attack, you had better leave the religion now. As humans learn more about the world around them and society becomes more educated as a whole, it is gonna get a whole lot worse. You might not be changing your mind any time soon, but many Christians are. Did you know that your religion is on the decline. Here is a link which talks about it.

Let me ask you something. If your belief is founded in absolute truth, as many Christians claim, why do atheistic attacks or questions bother you? I would think that, if the faithful are presented with the opportunities to disprove atheistic objections, that would make you happy, not upset. Would this not be the best way to introduce new members to the flock by disproving atheistic beliefs and at the same time reaffirm your own belief? I don't think the atheistic answers bother you. I think it is the fact that atheist, for the most part, offer answers which cause you to doubt your own beliefs. If this is the case, you need to sit down and seriously examine why you believe what you do.
One more thing, before I go. I do not appreciate being stereotyped as a tree hugger. Even though I lack a belief in god, I have beliefs, which I would bet are just as conservative as yours. You might not want to continue making these types of statements. Members of the Christian religion already have a reputation of being bigoted and when you say things like this, you are only reinforcing that idea.

I was once a hard-core Christian who had his mind changed - don't be so sure what effect Atheists might have here. I can't plant a tree right now, too much snow on the ground. But I will in the Spring, as a good Atheist.

You should say this to the Atheists who are attacking your religion. Don't generalize and announce that all Atheists are like that. Because the majority of us could care less about religion.
Go plant a tree? Isn't that what your supposed to be doing? Don't you care about this environment that your "God" has made? Go plant some trees and help mother nature.

Speaking for this atheist only, I'm really a non-conformist. So stop attacking US, WE're not subscribing to your beliefs and go plant a tree. It helps with this global warming problem way more than prayer.

I take it that you never learned of or even heard of something called the First Amendment.
1) We have the right to free speech to express ourselves why we do not believe in god.
2) Yes!! Most of you Christians ARE trying to change or push your beliefs onto people

Christians change their minds all the time.
Apostasy in the USA is around 2% per year. In the UK its faster. In much of Europe drop out rates from Christian churches are huge.

Actually, you're quite wrong. I'm pretty confident in saying that there are more former Christian atheists than there are former atheist Christians. So we keep spreading the word, knowing that there are some people who are willing to have their eyes opened by the truth.

Same here. There is an imaginary difference, but you tend to acknowledge a lot of imaginary things, I'm sure.
