Oh the irony...
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House
“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom
"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

Hmm, the guy who thinks an invisible man lives inside him also thinks Atheism is based on ignorance.
Hmm, the guy who thinks that a talking snake helped to damn the world for all eternity thinks that atheists are his god's best tools.

You've got a major credibility issue here pal. No one give a shit what you think.

And the fact that, statistically, atheists are more knowledgeable when it comes to your holy book than the believers fits into your little "atheism is based on ignorance" statement... how?

What is the % increase in atheists year on year in 'murica? If it goes up relative to population growth, then doesn't that sort of dismiss your thesis, unless of course whatever god it is that you refer to wants more people to remain atheist from birth?
'Atheism' in western and Northern Europe is either the second or the largest 'religious' demographic and is almost without exception the quickest growing demographic too...does this god you refer to not wish to operate there anymore?
I'm also curious about states where Christianity (I assume you're a Christian of somesort) is a small minority religion, such as coptics in Northern Africa and the ME and in places such as India, China and the rest. Does god work through the hindu's too?

Ironically, the best tool to tarnish the authenticity of the ' god- story' is the Bible

Atheists would look better if you turned around and called yourself a Christian. Christians would also look less intelligent.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
