Would you believe him? Why not? How can you prove him wrong?
Actually because I know that this Allah doesn't exist, I do not concern nor worry myself about it. That's why I can't understand why atheist waste time with something they do not believe exists.

Meanwhile you both look down on the atheist who has to live under the laws you make in society based on your religious justifications, justifications which you won't even reconsider because of your certainty. We (or I, at least) care about the God question because we do happen to share the same world and communities and the actions of those who act with absolute certainty in the name of God affect us as well.
