You do realise that atheists don't live their lives based on their disbelief in a god? What you don't seem to realise is that atheism is a tiny part in our lives. It is not a lifestyle and certainly not a world view.
... Then why do you all spend so many hours a day on these forums, trying to disprove God?

You're right, BadWriterSparty, I did come looking for answers, in a sense. I came because an unexamined faith is not worth living. A few level-headed people on this forum have helped me to examine that faith, yourself not included.
With the meager evidence, frequent scapegoating and excessive flaming I've gotten from the general community of atheists here, I've become more convinced that Jesus is Lord, and more convinced that most people really aren't willing to look at all the facts and make a clear, informed decision. Like you, they'd rather cling to what they want to be true, and use scapegoating, mockery, and circumlocution to make themselves feel better, hiding in groups of like-minded people to draw confidence.
