I ask this of almost every theist I come across here. I've never gotten a straight forward answer...
Hmm. Or any answer at all.
Seriously, what does it matter to them? Is it hurting anyone? Does it affect them in any way? Are they worried for our souls because their boss is going to torture us? I would guess the real answer is that it makes them uncomfortable.
The existence of God is far less obvious than the existence of gravitational forces. I hope even theists would agree with that much. You'd be hard pressed to find a single person in their right mind who doesn't believe in gravitational forces. Yet you can easily find a large percentage of people that don't believe in God. This isn't to say that our lack of belief is justified by numbers, of course not. But it's not consistent with how apparent many theists seem to think God is.
