Many imagine that we are morally decrepit, mean spirited and loutish. It is the antitheists among us that are responsible for much of that impression, but we're all guilty of a lack of loyalty to the faith and of not loving god.
Most mainstream Christians don't really care about atheism from what I have seen. It's funny, but I think those anti-theists you mentioned care more about religion and unnecessarily bring religion into a conversation much more than most believers on this planet.
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.

As a practical matter Scripture tells is that we know people by their fruits. I have a gay couple as neighbors and they seem like the most loving, joyous, peaceful, patient, kind, good, faithful, gentle and self-controlled people I've met in a long time. Fruit like that Chad, or are you so discerning that the verses that immediately precede these are held to a higher degree of credibility in the Cherry Pickers Buybull? Most self-proclaimed christians don't have half of the qualities (fruit) listed in Galatians 5:22-23, but share more than one or two features found in the preceding verses (5:19-21) condemning the sinful acts of the flesh, namely; Sexual immorality, impurity, Idolatry, hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, self-ambition, dissensions, factions, envy, and drunkenness. Now Chad, these are the qualities that describe most of the christians I know or have ever known. It seems that "they will not inherit the kingdom of heaven." (I've bolded the sinful acts of the flesh that Paul has condemned. I see most christians regularly engaged in as a daily lifestyle)
Theists think that all of the good stuff in the buybull is talking about them, and they think that all of the condemnation crap in the buybull is aimed at atheists. It's simple really. Oh, sure, they may dispute this fact, but just "look at their friut" and you'll know the truth.
Don't show your ignorance by telling Christians what they believe. Idiocy. I don't believe that and the Church doesn't teach that crap. Condemnation is for the unrepentant, the sinners who reject Christ, folks who spend their lives selfishly for their own lusts, greed, pleasure. Truth be told we don't know the true extent of gods mercy. You atheitards don't hate the church , just your own ugly false caricature of it. These posts truly prove that point. In fact if I were to ask you 10 things you disagree wit h the church on I bet 5 or more would be false accusations! Idiocy. Stay lazy. Read your Hitchens. Good luck.

Sometimes you need to be outside of something to really see what its like.

Buddy, not that I care, but if you don't calm it the fuck down and attempt to participate in civil discourse, you're probably gonna find yourself locked out of here inside of a week.
Just a word to the wise. Well, to you, anyway.

Here's how Christians view theists. At leat this one. Angry. Or lazy and selfish. Or prideful.
Some hate god. So they say they don't believe in a god that would allow some tragedy or evil to befall them earlier in life. Why didn't god protect me from that? Howcould a good god allow that to happen to us?
Some get so caught up in their own selves, that they look for reasons to deny a god that asks us to think of others first. I want to buy that yacht and have sex with as many as I can at a time, and never have to go to church... So out of necessity they have to deny god to clear their conscience.
Others are intellectual, and too smart for their own good. They think if they can't measure itor sense it or decide it it's not there. So they deny god on an intellectual basis. I'm so smart I won't be fooled by the deity fallacy! Hahaha. Look at me,I'm enlightened. Then they like to look down on any card carrying Christian.iwish they could engage one of the thousands of intellectually superior theologians and religious we have today. Iwish they could have engaged pope John Paul the great. Or Benedict. Take a visit to fr. Robert Barron. Or tweet him. Email Peter kreeft at BC. Or Scott Hahn at Franciscan U.

I am most certainly "outside" and I can tell you that he's pretty damn close there...
