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?
Yes, I would believe.
2. Do athiests hate God or do they hate organized religion in general?
We hate organised religion when it gives people a reason to hate it, what with things like 9/11, opposition to gay rights and other human rights.
3. Why does it seem like athiests hate Jesus more than anyone, what do you think of Jesus?
He was just like any of the many moral thinkers who have come and gone across the centuries like Zoroaster, the Buddha, and Mohammed. They all had their flaws and so did Jesus. Of course, it's the people who use his name for their own means that really tends to push atheists' berserk buttons.
4. Do any of you know athiests that have converted to another religion, did you feel swayed by their conversion?
Yes, I've heard of some. Kirk Cameron was apparently an atheist before he became a Christian. Yes, I've looked at what he's done, and no, none of it was convincing.
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?
The former. I've done a lot of research into most of the major religions of the world, and all have fallen short. I was a Christian first, but then I actually put some thought into John 3:16 and realised that this could be boiled down to "God sacrificed himself to himself to change a rule he made himself." Naturally, I realised how little sense it made and left.
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?
Atheists really don't force opinions on others any more to Christians than Christians do to us. And even then, the fact is that, just like Christians, atheists have the right to say their own opinions (as long as they're not inciting violence), and, conversely, everybody has the right to just walk away and listen to someone else. If you can show examples of atheists actually forcing opinions on others, we'd like to see it. And, before you get the idea, it can be pretty well assumed that the atheists on this forum have basically washed their hands of the antics of the Communist Bloc, and that the Nazis barely, if at all, can be considered atheists.
Yes, I would believe.
