What i meant by saying atheists are disillusioned is that they have simply given up altogether on religion because they dont see evidence for it. However there is evidence in the form of the Gospels, the teachings of Jesus.
Whoops! Your ignorance is showing.

So no matter what anyone say they will always read with this presumption.
There you go hastily generalizing and telling people what they believe and why.

And to clarify on me being a "true christian". By that i mean that i base my faith on the Christ, hence the Gospels, and not the Old Testament.
Why hatin' on the Old Testament so much, your buddy Jesus liked it.
