Don't ever ever buy into their claims that they are atheists.
They are militant anti-theists and there is a huge difference.
Although viewing themselves as "free thinkers", they all have a Party
Line they follow rather closely.
But the militant atheists -the ones who have devoted
their lives to refuting Christianity- are almost like the
demons ...who believe more firmly in God's existence
than do Christians !
It can unequivocally be stated that militant atheists are some
of the people who most solidly believe in God !
Ain't talking 'practical atheists' here ...those who don't
even think much about atheism. They're the true
atheists.
Professional atheists who've dedicated themselves
to eradicating the Lord do so because they hate Him.
They're the God-haters.
To which they'll invariably reply: 'How can we hate
something we don't believe in ?'.
Exactly ! It's their belief in God which drives them to
relentlessly attack Him.
Run of the mill, everyday 'practical atheists' don't
give God a second thought. They're the ones
I worry about.
Whereas militant atheists are fighting against the
innate knowledge of suppressed in their hearts.
As a militant atheist I can unequivocally state that there is no time
in your life that you
totally disbelieved in God. And -in fact- were driven to
work against the Lord by belief in Him !
It isn't that militant atheists don't believe God exists.
Instead: That they don't want God to exist.
So when debating don't ever buy into their *how can we believe in a sky

pixie* claim because they most certainly do though they will never
admit it.
They have a fire and hatred in their hearts for God and that is what
brings them into religious newsgroups on a regular basis.
They want to destroy your faith like they have destroyed their own.

Welcome Paolo.

You've certainly hit the ground running with some pretty strong comments.

It may surprise you, but even though I am a strong Christian and I certainly do not endorse atheism, your comments don't quite ring true to me entirely based on my experience interacting with atheists, agnostics and skeptics.

There certainly are militant anti-theists. Madeline Murray O'Hair was one. Richard Dawkins qualifies I believe. Others certainly come to mind. They are not the majority however. There's more an informal network among those who fall in this category than a grand scale conspiracy. In fact, if you want, I can point you to a pretty in depth article by an Atheist who actually takes the militant faction to task and chides them for being too extreme. In fact, I may just do that in another thread to get some feedback from others.

Some who are atheists now, will accept Christ before they die and spend eternity with you and me, in heaven, assuming we're both saved of course.

Be wary of broad generalizations that stereotype people, even people with whom you disagree.

In the end it is what any of us do with Jesus Christ that matters. Atheists are no more lost, than those who follow other Gods. The invitation is no less real to them as to any of us to turn to Christ know personally the God they now deny.

Again welcome,

Bart

Hey at least he didn't say all atheists! :D But yes, I would think it's weird for an atheist to try and find more reasons not to believe, but I don't think they believe in God, they probably just want to make Christians feel stupid, or make them see the light. :lol: But there's really no point in that… doesn't hurt to believe in something, unless you're hurting other people with it or yourself or something. Kind of like a one-inch safety net. I think theres slight chance there is a God but doesn't hurt to have that net anyway.
