Well, here are the verses: Romans 1:18-19 18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness. 19 For what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
And then, creation itself is the evidence: vs 20 - For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
Without scripture, it would be concluded atheists actually believe what they are saying about God's existence.
Yes, there really are people who do not believe in deities of any sort. Really.
And if your scripture says otherwise, then your scripture is simply wrong. It's up to you as to what you want to do about that fact.
