OTHERS WHO CONVERTED TO THE ROMAN CATHOLIC FAITH, SOME FROM THEIR DEATH BEDS>>>>

Atheism addresses one thing, and one thing only..... the god claim.  It is a rejection of the god claim... ALL god claims.  That's it.  It says absolutely NOTHING about geology, cosmology, A-Biogenesis, or anything else.  It just addresses the god claim ONLY.  I really don't understand why this concept is so hard for believers to accept.  It is very simple and straight forward.  It's so simple that even a child as young as 5 or 6 can grasp it if it was explained properly. 

No, they don't. That is the definition of "atheist". They also don't believe in Hell. No-one believes humans evolved from monkeys, but most atheists, like most Christians, do have a basic understanding of the process of biological evolution.

born again Christian biologist

No, they don't.  They fantasize that there is no God.

all religions are false......

Atheists do not believe in god, the devil, spirits, angels, heaven, or hell. Only theists believe some people will burn in hell. They even hope some will. Atheists also do not believe we came from monkeys. Evolution suggests that monkeys, apes, and humans all evolved from a common ancestor. I took the time to explain it again, even though I'm sure you have heard these things before, in the hope that you may finally "get it".

Atheists do not want God, so yes, they know ... until they sin themselves insensible.

One who believes in God is not an atheist. They deny the existence of God. They also believe that there is no hell or heaven. They ask for evidence. Books and news papers cannot satisfy them. Some of them have been brought up like that and some others change into atheists when they don't get proper answers to their questions.

I am a living evidence for the existence of God. If they know me, they will understand.

God never bothers whether people believe in him or not. God’s intervention in human affairs is very rare. God doesn't watch each and every human being at the same time and cannot live with each and everyone to guide them. These works are done by the spirits. God had created different kinds of spirits for various purposes. He had made the spirits to watch, guide and determine the destiny of the human beings from their daily activities, talks and thoughts too. Your past determines your present and your present determines your future. God has given freewill to all creatures including human beings. According to this, all human beings have all right to live a life as they wish. But if it happens to be bad and hurts someone, they have to face the consequences. These consequences are created by spirits. It's a natural system. After death no one lives in any form. Heaven and hell are only for spirits, not for human beings. God is a mystery even to the spirits. Spirits are not eternal beings but their lifetime is long. Spirits are separate elements. A human being during his/her lifetime is living with many spirits which have joined one by one since birth. They are knowledge, skills, feelings, emotions, interests and everything. Further there will be always some spirits with you on behalf of your parents, friends and relatives. Only these spirits make you remember them in a certain situations. All of these spirits are your consciousnesses and memories. Even thoughts are not your own. For example, when you want to take a decision on a subject, one after another the spirits think and you just listen, choose or reject the ideas which they transmit to your mind through your brain in the form of thoughts. Brain is just a media to connect the spirits to your mind. A mind is just a computer's mind. A mind is you. After the destruction of a computer completely you will not get its mind. The same is the case with the human beings.  A human being doesn't have a spiritual body. Soul is nothing but an energy needed for the functionality of a body. It is not a spirit or anything else. A body's functionality is based on the auto mechanism.  After death all spirits which accompanied a person quit and go to different places searching new bodies. No one lives after death in any form. All human beings are just robots made of flesh and bones and toys of the spirits for their games.

Atheists mean those who deny the existence of GOD. Simple as that.

It is of interest to note that none of the spirit creatures, not even demons, are atheists or agnostics.

 Atheism and agnosticism are doctrines found only on earth, among those who say that they would have to see God with their literal eyes to believe or to have faith in him.

It is not that atheists and skeptics are completely unfamiliar with religion. On the contrary, their experience with religion is often what pushes them toward disbelief. 

Organized religion, they may feel, has failed to answer life’s tough questions. What kind of questions?

 Ironically, they are often the same questions that people who claim to have faith in God struggle with. 

The Bible is highly regarded for its literary value even by some atheists. 

Really, though, few read it in order to apply what it says. 

Moreover, since the good news it contains dates from nearly two thousand years ago, many people seem to believe that it should be modernized, brought up-to-date.

Dwight D. Eisenhower once said that in times of need soldiers on the battlefield would instinctively turn to God for help; he claimed that there are no atheists in the foxholes.

 But why do many wait for such an emergency before thinking seriously about God? True faith is based on accurate knowledge, with works to back it up.
