Atheist arguments and the morality of God.

Whilst ex theists and theists can understand an atheist position having at some point lived it, atheists simply cannot compute the reasoning and will go as far as to call people liars because of that.
Not all atheists do this, but it's not unusual for one to say "I don't understand how theists believe/reject X." IMO, that's a limitation on the atheist's part, not a problem with the theist. I've believed to some extent for as far back as I can remember. But, I'm a person, I talk to people, I read what people write, and I can understand how someone could be an atheist/evolutionist etc. I understand how someone could belong to a different religion from me. Most people are at least professing theists. You should be able to understand them, even if you disagree with them. It's a normal and common human position.
