I love this line:
"But simply put, atheists are people who don't believe in God. And since they don't believe in God, that means they don't KNOW God - so what makes them think they have a right to bash Him?"
Not exisiting is a pretty large character flaw for any God.

Read the page; haven't clicked on any of the articles yet...
It's kind of amusing in a way, since the author is do desperately trying to be open-minded and accommodating towards atheists (otherwise what's the point of creating a site intended to convert us) but is so bristling with anger and scorn that it keeps poking through in his (assuming it's a he) language.
Because of course when you get to the end; what do you find?
"(3) Lastly, if atheists wish to believe they'll be nothing but worm fodder when then die, they should GO FOR IT! YHWH (God) will certainly accommodate them; their rejection of Him will be duly noted on Judgment Day (whether they "believe" or not!)...."
THERE you go.
For all the talk of scientific proof and fulfilled prophecies, religion's actual MESSAGE is the same as it's always been: OBEY OR SUFFER. Do as we say or God will get you.
The religious can flatter themselves that they're the bringers of peace and love, and the arbiters of morality, but at the end of the day religion derives its power from violence. Violence in this world and the threat of worse violence in the next.

May YHWH strike me dead right now for thinking I'll be nothing but worm fodder when I die.
Nope, still alive.
Maybe YHWH's taking a coffee break...

Just more scare tactics. Believe & do as we say or you burn for all eternity. That is literally all that they have, and then some disproven attacks on evolution. I almost feel sorry for these people, so pathetic that the only argument they have is to try & scare people. That might work on small children who have have it brainwashed into them, but not on rational people.

8 hours on and I'm still here...
I don't know... maybe YHWH has caused a tiny cell of plaque to get caught in my aorta which will lead to the slow blockage of blood flow inevitably resulting in a fatal heart attack at the age of 67 giving me 38 years in which to recant my sinful, atheistic, worm-fodder-believing ways and save my own life...
You never know...
Check back with me in 38 years.
