    Atheist Hatred for God

    Where did people come to the conclusion that simply because Atheists do not believe in God, they automatically hate him?

    As with any question that one my ask here, I will expect scripture to back up your responses (if your response warrants it, that is).

    Thanks in advance for anyone who can clear this up for me.

    Psalm 14:1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.



    The Bible tells us atheists are corrupt people that do no good. Obviously rebelling against God's law means they hate Him. If they Loved Him, they would follow the Bible right? So it stands to reason if they don't follow, they hate Him.

      Dear Space Cadet;

      Why are you here? This is a Christian forum. You demand Biblical explanations for questions that you imagine will "trip us up" and make us abandon our faith in God? That is not gonna happen.

      Whatever is not of God is of satan. Enjoy hell, Godmocker.

        Well, I've never met an atheist who believes in God, I find that very suspicious...

              Who ever said that Atheist hate gold? That's stupid. We know that materialist and cat-o-lick priests value gold over all things. Atheists LOVE gold.

              I care more about honor and glory and smashing greedy shopkeepers heads in with a pike than about gold! (although the gold is useful and I do take it)
              I am on the adventure of a lifetime! This is even better than the time I used the plastic stones!

                I think you're messing things up. They can't hate God, because to allow them to hate him would require his existence. People are corrupt, and all have sinned, yet that does not mean they hate God. If you don't show love to something, that does not mean you hate it.

                  Well God does exist so they are hating Him. The opposite of love is hate, is it not?

                    They lack faith he exists, and since they lack faith that would mean they don't hate what they don't believe is there. No, you can't give opposites to things such as love and hate. Just because I may not love someone, that doesn't mean I hate them.

                      Mr. Osborne, I'm afraid that passage doesn't explicitly state that Atheists hate God.

                      Obviously we can agree that Atheists are sinners for not believing in the Lord, but I read that line simply as saying they are bad people, but not that they hate God.

                      Not loving does not imply hatred. There are people I don't love, but by no means do I hate them.

                      And Ezekiel, I'm not trying to trip anyone up. Being of my age (in my teens) I'm looking for clarification on things I do not understand, or am curious about. If I can't follow God's word properly, how can I live a proper life?

                          that isn't a true representation of atheists.

                            Who should we trust to tell the truth about atheists? An atheist (bearing in mind that atheists are notorious liars), or a Christian (who has to tell the truth, otherwise they'll have to answer to God)? The answer seems pretty obvious to me.
                            O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.



                            God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

                              how about a good-natured (as far as others tell me i am) atheist who tells the truth about his fellows because he wants to?
