What is wrong with those people who don't believe in God?

I'll answer your question.

If God revealed himself to me, what reason would I have to obey without question? There are horrible diseases, "accidents", etc. that should be asked of this God. I see no reason to kiss the *** of a God who causes this.

In Islam they call it fitrah - Primordial Nature of Man.

"Every single child is born upon the fitrah, and then his parents may make him into a Jew or Christian or Magian."

Pretty much it means everyone was born believing in one God.
Do..do people just not exist before Jews? Because if not, I'd like you to explain a massive number of things to me, starting with Babylon. We'll get to China after we finish somewhere in ****ing Egypt.

If something bad happens you, will you automatically start praying to God?
Nope. I am 60 years old and the thought simply would not occur to me and I've been through some pretty interesting situations over the years, I assure you, LOL.

Like earthquake...stock under a rubble of a skyscraper.

I think you would pray to God to save you.

Why though? It's not part of my reality. Please try to understand that. I'd be more inclined to immediately take stock of my situation and then act. No god required. Again, please try to understand that not only do some of us no longer believe in any god concepts but further to this... ... we no longer NEED god.

What is wrong with those people who think they no longer need God? Maybe they gave up, they lost all the hope and stopped being aggressive. Some one need to inspire them and lift them up, give them hope so they would be more aggressive.

No buddy really attacked me in this topic like they usually do. As if atheist actually believe deep inside.

Mostly we've been trolled by better.
If you'd put a little effort into the OP, really sell the self-rightousness, you might get more of a reaction.

But if you're just gonna half-arse an attack on us, don't be surprised when we can't be bothered getting our knickers in a twist.

Here is a website that is all about atheists serving in the American military, maintaining atheism despite being in life-or-death situations. http://militaryatheists.org/atheists-in-foxholes/

And that's good. Because if people only believe in gods when they're fearing for their lives, then that's a pretty selfish reason for being a theist. Not because a relationship or love that they have, but because they're afraid of their own mortality.

One of several reasons why I don't think much of the Qur'an. It pretty tells me outright that it is wrong.

What are you doing being an authority on religious forum? Maybe you got deep roots in religion.

There is nothing wrong with me. I'm one of the most psychologically stable people you are ever likely to come across.

Maybe they gave up, they lost all the hope and stopped being aggressive.
It's remarkable that you think that this might be so. I guess you can't face the fact that some of us have simply outgrown such childish thinking.

Some one need to inspire them and lift them up, give them hope so they would be more aggressive.
That would not work for me as I am not a follower. I'd rather be alone against the universe than submit to the supposed authority of Islamic "scholars".

Some people use God as a crutch which atheists have no use for.
