"The single greatest cause of Atheism in the world today is Christians?

Yes, as a Christian, I find this very offensive but the reality is that none of us Christians are any better than anybody else. The fact is we need to simply acknowledge that and put it out in the open and instead of saying how other people should act, we should be tealling how God loves us even though we act stupid! That seems to be the message Christ gave constantly... He said "woe to the pharisees" who were doing just that - saying one thing and doing another.

We Christians need prayers just as much, or more, than others!!

Thanks for the great question. Be blessed.

I think it is simplistic and not true. I think the reason many (most, even) people are atheists is education, critical thinking, and learning. There are more religions than just Christianity--atheists deny the truth of all theistic religions, not just Christianity.

The Bible clearly condemns hypocrites. Read Matthew 23, a long list there. The Church is infiltrated with many hypocrites who show that they are truly not clean on either the inside or the outside.

I bet a lot of us are just born skeptics. I know I was. I was always questioning and investigating things for myself since I can remember.

All the nasty Christians I've met have just made me weary of pushy Christians. They didn't "cause" anything.

The cause of Strong Atheism is Fundamentalism

it is overly simplistic.

(Certain types of) Christians only explain why I'm not Christian, not why I believe in no gods.

More "not true" than simplistic.

We don't become atheists because a christian hurt our widdle feelings. It's because intellectually and morally christianity falls down for us.

Thanks for the chuckle. I personally am offended by the self proclaimed Christian that thinks he or she has all the answers and tries to push his or her beliefs on others.

NO, I believe that it is satan. He has been the negative force in this world. Our church members may become a bit aggravating at times but satan has caused the rift that allows this to bother people at all. Man in his infinite stupidity has done a lot of crazy things. GOD is not evil and those who follow HIM are not either. Have a great evening.

No, I think the greatest "cause" of Atheism is knowledge and critical thinking.

*I'm not an atheist though.
