The hiddeness of god?

So then, here's my argument against atheism; not all the world may be Christian, but just about 5 billion people believe in some form of a God. I wonder what those people see that the atheists don't?

Delusion.

Really? 5 billion people out of 6 billion people are deluding themselves? Every single person and every single experience that they cite as proof of God is just delusion? Do you even realize how unlikely that is?

The contradiction here is gaping.

There is no contradiction. Just because a majority of people beleive in a religion does not make religion true. If that were the case and if there were more Muslims than Christians (which may happen in years to come) should we all become Muslims? Pls refer to my earlier refutation of your arguments, I'm afraid they don't hold water! Yes most people are deluded, we know that because even if one version of one sect of one religion were true the rest of us were wrong! You cannot hide behind other peoples religion using some abstract concept of god ie the Many roads to god argument. It is intellectually bankrupt.
