No offence but I see atheists like children that cannot yet grasp the subtilities of life. I see them like a child who goes to see a movie and spends all the time saying "she is not really dead, she's just an actress...that's not real blood, it's just paint...he didn't really fall off the cliff, etc...we just feel like telling him to shut up and try to follow the story! It's not that his reasoning is false, it's just out of context.I'm sure God likes atheists like a father cherishes a child that is not very bright; I'm sure they amuse him with their excessive and rigid rationality.For one thing, science and religion are not opposite, exclusive to one another, otherwise how can we explain that great scientists are often also beleavers. There is no proof that Einstein did not beleave in a personal God, (we know he beleaved in "God")... who say's he didn't keep his most personal beleafs to himself; granted he did not like institutionalised religions. For some atheists, science is their religion. They blame religion for everything but we see now that it is not religion but our blind faith in science and especially thechnology that has caused the mess we are all in, economically and ecologically. And we still here the same mantra "science will solve the problems it creates"...yeah, right!As for myself, I can't help but to beleave in God because He showed me time and time again that he beleaves  in me. I often say to atheists that it is easy to not beleave in God, we don't see him, we don't touch him, we don't hear him, but the most difficult is to not beleave all the other stuff...the media, the latest "scientific" discovery (remember the 2000 bug? scientists made complete fools of themselves).For sure atheism brought some progress to humanity because of too much oppression from the clergy of most religions, particularly the Catholic Church and the Vatican. But now people have the freedom to seek spiritual elevation for real.The comparison of God to the tooth fairy or to Santa Claus is reduntant among some atheists that just "don't get it". It vexes me because I don't see why atheists concentrate on God's non-existance, they don't go around telling kids the tooth fairydoes not exist, so why focus so much on God if he doesn't exist? This shows that some atheists have an unsolved existential problem or else they would just let go like anything else as ridiculous as beleaving in Santa Claus. This idea comes from a christian saint and philosopher who said that for someone who doesn't exist, God surely gets a hell of a lot of attention! I think, though I have no scientific proof, that atheists generally have a problematic relation with their father. God being the father "par excellence" they cannot accept that, probably because they have not succeed to symblolically "kill the father" in order to become a man.It pleases me to have God in my life. I sometimes need to say "Thank You" to someone grater than myself. Atheists beware: when you don't beleave in God you tend to think you are God and since you're not, than trouble starts with your loved ones.:blinkingkaur:</blockquote>
