You make a claim about atheists and then back it up with a quote from a book that relies on a belief that atheists do not have to be considered a reliable source. That is circular reasoning.

I am telling the Truth! If you look at the daily sky and draw the conclusion that there is NO Creator, you are without excuse, no matter what you call yourself. The fact is you are worshipping "yourself".

God's Words are put there for those who have ears to hear...AMEN!

In other words, your argument for the existence of god is based on your personal reaction to seeing the sky? Are you saying that you cannot fathom how it could have come about except through the intervention of some kind of "Creator"? If that is the case then you are simply appealing to personal incredulity and ignorance. Even if the "sky" (which during the day is a result of light from the sun being filtered through various elements in the atmosphere and at night is simply the result of light from distant stars travelling to the planet) did "prove" that there existed some kind of "Creator" that alone would not give any useful information regarding this "Creator" apart from the fact that it can somehow create the sky. It doesn't even give reason for worshipping such a "Creator", much less drawing the conclusion that this "Creator" send "His" "Son" to Earth to die for humanity's sins and that eternal life is granted to all who believe.
