He writes:

Angry, audacious, asinine atheists profess loudly to all who will listen–even to those who won’t–that God does not exist. They are especially overbearing and offensive even obnoxious during the Christmas season. Atheists also do not believe in Santa Clause, the Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny, and Peter Pan but they do not try to convince others of their non-existence. However, I don’t believe in atheists and neither does God. The Bible clearly teaches that God loves the world and wants everyone to place faith in Him to guarantee forgiveness of sins and a place in Heaven. Atheists don’t exist because God will not permit it.

So I had a quick rummage through my bible and found that Dr Boys is wrong: God, Jesus, Moses, Paul, the gospel authors and the Old Testament prophets all believe in atheists and actually have quite a lot to say about them:

(All quotes come from the English Standard version ESV)

The god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers (2 Corinthians 4:4)

And he marveled because of their unbelief. (Mark 6:6)

If any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he should not divorce her. (1 Corinthians 7:12)

And the Lord said to Moses, “How long will this people despise me? And how long will they not believe in me (Numbers 14:11)

Whoever does not believe is condemned already (John 3:18)

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds, there is none who does good. (Psalm 14:1)

Have mercy on those who doubt (Jude 1:22)

If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me (John 10:37)

Whoever does not believe will be condemned. (Mark 16:16)

Whoever is not with me is against me (Matthew 12:30)

In the pride of his face the wicked does not seek him; all his thoughts are, “There is no God.” (Psalm 10:4)

If any woman has a husband who is an unbeliever, and he consents to live with her, she should not divorce him. (1 Corinthians 7:13)

The exulting of the wicked is short, and the joy of the godless but for a moment (Job 20:5)

Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. (John1:9)

He has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. (1 Timothy 5:8)

Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. (2 Corinthians 6:14)

What portion does a believer share with an unbeliever? (2 Corinthians 6:15)

Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart (Hebrews 3:12)

Dr Boys also writes:

Atheists also do not believe in Santa Clause, the Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny, and Peter Pan but they do not try to convince others of their non-existence.

This is my response:

Christians often ask why atheists care so much about religion. They point out that atheists don't believe in Santa Claus, or pixies, or the Tooth Fairy, but they don't continually harp on the subject - so why do they get so worked-up about god? If they don't believe in god then why does it bother them so much?

Well the people who believe in Santa Claus, or pixies, or the Tooth Fairy, are not going door-to-door trying to convert others to their way of thinking. They are not lobbying Government to impose laws that will make life difficult for those who do not believe. They are not asking Government to give them tax-breaks while everyone else has to pay. They are not asking that science classes should include pixies as possible explanations for natural events. They are not asking that all children pray to the Tooth Fairy before the start of each school day. They are not demanding that our courts dole out sentences in accordance with pixie law. Santa Claus believers and Tooth Fairy followers don't do those things - but religious people do.

And there is one other reason why atheists care about Christian behaviour: Many Christians believe they have the ability to heal their children with prayer and refuse to provide medical assistance for the youngsters. The children die agonizing deaths and the parents don't lift a finger to help them; they just sit at the bedside and pray!

Even worse, when their children finally die, these Christian sadists actually boast about the strength of their faith. Check out the front cover and page 2 of the Jehovah Witness 'Awake' magazine where Christians gloat about the number of children who died because their woefully inadequate parents refused to provide the medical assistance that would have eased their pain and saved their lives.

That's why atheists care about Christianity. It is a religion that turns its followers into uncaring monster who are prepared to let their children die, just so they can strut into church the next Sunday morning and boast to their fellow believers about the strength of their faith. (Too bad the kid died, but hey, look at me!)
