Don't ever ever buy into their claims that they are atheists.
They are militant anti-theists and there is a huge difference.
Although viewing themselves as "free thinkers", they all have a Party
Line they follow rather closely.
But the militant atheists -the ones who have devoted
their lives to refuting Christianity- are almost like the
demons ...who believe more firmly in God's existence
than do Christians !
It can unequivocally be stated that militant atheists are some
of the people who most solidly believe in God !
Ain't talking 'practical atheists' here ...those who don't
even think much about atheism. They're the true
atheists.
Professional atheists who've dedicated themselves
to eradicating the Lord do so because they hate Him.
They're the God-haters.
To which they'll invariably reply: 'How can we hate
something we don't believe in ?'.
Exactly ! It's their belief in God which drives them to
relentlessly attack Him.
Run of the mill, everyday 'practical atheists' don't
give God a second thought. They're the ones
I worry about.
Whereas militant atheists are fighting against the
innate knowledge of suppressed in their hearts.
As a militant atheist I can unequivocally state that there is no time
in your life that you
totally disbelieved in God. And -in fact- were driven to
work against the Lord by belief in Him !
It isn't that militant atheists don't believe God exists.
Instead: That they don't want God to exist.
So when debating don't ever buy into their *how can we believe in a sky

pixie* claim because they most certainly do though they will never
admit it.
They have a fire and hatred in their hearts for God and that is what
brings them into religious newsgroups on a regular basis.
They want to destroy your faith like they have destroyed their own.
