They just find the way you guys describe your god to be an evil prick. I mean what kind of god says "I'm going to punish you for not believing in me, and then give you no evidence to do so!" What kind of god says "I'm going to punish you for having sexual relations with someone of the same sex, because I really care about that shit for some reason.' Evil prick incarnate.
I agree that some religious people do that.
But in many cases; traits like "greatness", "infinite lifespan", "pureness","strength"...etc are quite hated by atheists.
Because they're pretty much meaningless in a religious context.
