How does Atheism pose a threat?

[downbeatplumb]

I think believers see atheism as a threat because all other believers could be thought of as being wrong on the details but right in general by theists. i.e. they believe in god they just use the wrong name or they see multiple gods when there is just one.

But atheists are different, we have no belief that can be reconciled with theirs. That is why they tend to say things you "you don't believe in god, what do you believe in?" like Darth Vader, a lack of faith disturbs them.

This is why they try to make atheism a faith, they cannot reconcile someone having no faith at all with their view of the world.

It blows their minds.
