It's clear that they are set in their ways that atheists have never made an attempt nor do they know the proper way to seek. They state unequivocally that if you seek god correctly, you will find him, and I have yet to hear an adequate explanation from any of them how they know their experience is real and not a psychological illusion.
And on a final note, you Christians come off as extremely arrogant when proclaiming only you know the correct way to seek god. Perhaps you need to come to terms with the fact that conclusions different from yours can be reached properly, or would that shake your faith?
I think it's extremely arrogant for atheists to write off the spiritual experiences of billions of people as a delusion. I've yet to hear one atheist explain why they couldn't be possibly be deceived by Satan as the bible indicates they are.
I could tell you of all sorts of things, but it wouldn't be persausive. I will say that Material reality is a veil, concealing the spiritual reality. Your worldview and knowledge may to you seem completely sufficient yet the truth is that everything you know is wrong. The world isn't as it appears to be. I know, I grew up secular and believed all the same things you do. I thought that was the way things were, but much to my surprise I found out, not so much.
People can come to all sorts of conclusions, and have. It's a matter of what the truth is. Someone is right someone is wrong. The nature of truth is exclusivity.
