An interesting read brought to you by Steven Toast. What say YE? -

Why Did God Create Atheists?
There is a famous story told in Chassidic literature that addresses this very question. The Master teaches the student that God created everything in the world to be appreciated, since everything is here to teach us a lesson.
One clever student asks “What lesson can we learn from atheists? Why did God create them?”
The Master responds “God created atheists to teach us the most important lesson of them all — the lesson of true compassion. You see, when an atheist performs an act of charity, visits someone who is sick, helps someone in need, and cares for the world, he is not doing so because of some religious teaching. He does not believe that God commanded him to perform this act. In fact, he does not believe in God at all, so his acts are based on an inner sense of morality. And look at the kindness he can bestow upon others simply because he feels it to be right.”
"This means," the Master continued "that when someone reaches out to you for help, you should never say ‘I pray that God will help you.’ Instead for the moment, you should become an atheist, imagine that there is no God who can help, and say ‘I will help you.’"

tl;dr
Please make a thread of your own in the " Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.
And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.
I will pray that the Holy Spirit enter you and chase the demons out of your rectum and let Jesus fill you with His Grace. If you use your God-given free will to reject Christ and His temporary death on the cross for my sins, then you are sending yourself to hellfire.
Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:
Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

What is this nonsense? Why would I ever pretend there's no God?

Free Will.
God gave it to us to simplify the sorting process at the Fork of Death™ when it is decided to FastPass© heathens to the Chute of Hell. A simple 'quik chek' of a persons permanent record (no doubt it is stamped in block letters on the cover of the file) and probably 90% of the people can be given the boot. That leaves only 10% oif the dead to look at carefully.
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

I don't know what Ponzi scheme those Joo philosibaters are trying to run, but Psalm 53:1 informs us that atheists cannot do good acts. Devoid of a moral compass which only exists through the guidance of the Biblical God, atheists are utterly incapable of altruistic or ethical deeds. Any alleged altruistic or ethical behavior by these corrupt individuals invariably has a completely immoral end game which involves the buggering of little boys, the spitting, grilling, & consumption of infants, the Gay Agenda, or all of the above.
Psalm 137:9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.

Brother Des,
Will I ever be as wise and wordologically astute as you?
I am tempted to commit the sin of envy right now. Begone, satan.
COME LORD JESUS,
BrotherLarry
Proverbs 21:31 KJV 1611:
“The horse is prepared against the day of battell: but safetie is of the Lord.”
Lord, may I serve my equine brothers and sisters just as I do my fellow man. Amen and Amen

God did not create Atheists, friend. No more than He created murderers, rapists and whores. Atheists create themselves, propagating sodomy, blasphemy, adultery and murder; it is they who choose to walk the path to Hell's flames not Our Lord the Creator of all that is.
Revelation 3:20
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.

It is not my place as a woman to question you, sir. I believe the Bible teaches that we may all choose to turn away from damnation.
Ezekiel 18 30-32
“Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, declares the Lord God. Repent and turn from all your transgressions, lest iniquity be your ruin. Cast away from you all the transgressions that you have committed, and make yourselves a new heart and a new spirit! Why will you die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Lord God; so turn, and live.”
Or in the case of Atheists, Mormons, Socialists and Catholics, they may choose Aeternal Damnation.

Fixed your quote. I thought you'd been told to dump that ESV you're using?
Anyways, don't you think verse 21 would illustrate your point better?
Ezekiel 18:21 "But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die."
Of course, that's pre-semi-kinda-sorta-maybe-human-but-not-really Jesus, so these days you have to add the "believing and getting baptized" to it.
Ain't it great how you can prove multiple contradictory things with the Bible?
