It's certainly true and fair to say people have been hurt both physically and emotionally by by those who call themselves Christians or any theist for that matter, one only has to look at the news for that.
There are many reasons why people give up religion, but the old 'You're angry at god' thing is just redirection to the inadequacy of the idea of a god to explain anything at all. Don't mistake anger at religion with anger at god.
Most atheists are no more angry at god, than they are say superman for not saving the people in the twin towers for instance. This is what happens when people make stuff up about themselves and imagined afterlives.
I'm amused by apologetics in that it exists at all..
We supposedly have a creator of all things, who created us to worship him, allegedly put a 'god yearning' in us. This same god wants us to worship him, loves us beyond our imagination and his earnest wish is that every man be saved. Is all powerful, mighty and great, and has more glorious grandiose names than you can remember
And to bring this to fruition he brings about a sect of Christianty that attempt to talk about definitions they cannot know are true, and talk about states of creation they cannot know to be true, to explain why his existence is reasonable.
Pure comedy

So i don't . As for accusing you emotional reasons . I ironcally propose that this itself is an emotional attack or at least there is as much reason to believe that as the nonesense he's proposing
