You don’t, right? You’re pretty sure that Thor doesn’t exist, and it’s absurd to “hate” something that isn’t real?

Well, to an atheist, it’s exactly the same. Your god, to the best of our knowledge, exists as much as Thor. He’s as real as Thor is.

In other words, he doesn’t exist at all. And we — much like you, I bet — certainly don’t “hate” beings we believe to be non-existent. If you sometimes feel any anger from some of us, it’s probably directed at some particular Christians and their actions, because we think those actions are harming humanity in general.

Not at “God”. The thing is, Christians are real. So are their actions.

Nobody denies that. We’re convinced, however, that the Christian god — much like all the thousands of other gods invented by mankind throughout history — doesn’t exist. That he’s not real.

You don’t “hate” beings you know are fictional, such as Thor, Santa Claus, or the Tooth Fairy… and neither do we. (Note: please keep any comments related to the above question / answer, and not to other subjects, such as whether God exists or not. Thanks.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
