“...Also I’ve noticed with a lot of atheists its not enough for them that they have the freedom to not believe (God is very big on freedom of choice) they dislike the fact that we DO believe...”
Yep. I’ve said it many times before that IF God doesn’t exist, why is it such an issue with them what one believes or doesn’t believe?
IMHO, unlike the homosexual, the atheist still has some resemblance of a conscience that quietly gnaws on their gut. Thus, they dislike the very idea that’s contrary to their way of thinking and of those that do believe.
I think we’re on the same page my friend. Many atheists I come across seem to be selfish with their lives but still have a little doubt in the back of their minds as to if they are living the right way. I think from that conflict comes the outward aggression.
