Welcome aboard!
Treat us with respect, and the favor will be returned. Way too many Christians come here claiming to know why we are atheists without asking us first. Be ready to support your claims with demonstrable evidence, reasoned argument and valid logic. Defending your beliefs with appeals to emotional or faith won't cut it. You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.   I advise you to not take things personal and to follow up on opposing arguments.

Welcome to the place where you will sharpen your understanding of the faith.
Thanks!
I'll try not to take things personally- 'pologies if I have, and you didn't mean it.
I'm kinda busy and don't have much time for these forums, so if you respond to this post, don't expect me to reply immediately- but I will try to get back to you sometime.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK "That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
Wow the theists ARE stooping low now adays.
