1. Are athiests just wounded people, upset that God hasn't shown himself to them in a way they deem acceptable? Meaning, if he suddenly appeared you would believe?

I never wanted God to reveal himself to me - and I'm wounded, but by humans, not by God. I know the difference. I never really believed in God in the first place. If some bush burst into flame in front of me and a voice issued forth, I'd wonder who was playing with a match and brake cleaner around the corner who had ventriloquist powers. Then I'd get pissed that someone fucked with my shrubbery. I hope God likes machetes.

2. Do athiests hate God or do they hate organized religion in general?

I hate the latter. I'd have to believe God existed to hate "him."

3. Why does it seem like athiests hate Jesus more than anyone, what do you think of Jesus?

I don't hate the myth of Jesus. I hate plenty of his followers. I also love plenty of people who are Christian and count a few of them as my closest companions and friends.

4. Do any of you know athiests that have converted to another religion, did you feel swayed by their conversion?

Nope. Once they deconverted, they stayed that way.

5. Are you an athiest based on your research of many of the top religions, or does your athiesm come from a personal experience where you feel that God didn't show up like he should have?

Again, I never really believed in God. I described elsewhere that it was like everyone around me was speaking a language I couldn't comprehend. Then I realized there wasn't anything TO comprehend. It was all gibberish. Most of them didn't even care if I understood, as long as I made gibberish back and kept the game going.

6. Since athiests don't believe in God and dislike when people force God on them, why do they force their negative and hateful opinions on Christians (and other religions) through mockery and verbal assault?

Not all of them do. You see it on this board because this is OUR clubhouse. I trust you understand what I mean.

I mock what I find ridiculous. I try not to assault people (unless they fuck with my shrubbery).
