People of faith, why do you think that there are so many on this site that don't believe in anything?

Is it that they feel empty and are looking for something that there inner spirit lacks and maybe they just have not come to acceptance yet, or are they just here to try to disprove the word of God which they can never do?

Update:

pj, good answer

syrenarc, thank you, but hard to understand how could someone be passionate about nothing?

Thank you everyone, it shows your not in disbelief just doughting

    God places the questions about if He is real on every ones hearts.

    Therefor, those who wont admit it yet... keep searching to see if we can convince them that He is...

    They do NOT realize that all we can do is introduce God and Jesus..and it is up to them to ask Him themselves.

    It is VERY important that we BEHAVE properly when representing God.

    ~May we all be in remembrance of OUR Lords sacrifice to US~

    may we recall His promises to His chosen...

    and remember that MORE are chose

    than have answered Him thus far~

    Be IN REMEMBRANCE of

    His rules of conduct

    toward each other~

    and in front of non believers too.

    In being FAITHFUL to His rules~

    we are submitting to ALLOWING

    His promises TO be

    TRUTH.

    Submitting to KNOW that

    He answers prayer

    of THE Faithful.

    We gather to PRAY

    for each other

    ...like we are

    given special privilege..

    WE ARE given SPECIAL privilege ..

    BUT it COMES

    with the cost

    of SUBMISSION

    TO His written WORD.

    *~>

    Dear God please GROW us to KNOW YOUR PATH . Help us be SO attuned to YOUR will that we experience ALL that YOU have planned for us. Help us to encourage one another daily and to SHOW YOUR grace to those still seeking YOU~ In Jesus NAME I ask for these things Lord~ Grow us to YOUR service~ We Praise YOU for all that brings us into compliance and for those we speak to, of YOUR love and truth~ Amen

    Source(s): For the non believers...The bible asks us to make the introduction in many verses... here is one. Matthew 28 The Great Commission 16Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[a] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

    Everyone on this site believes something whethor that there is no God or that there is a God and are only arguing about His nature.

    The atheist can be just as passionate about his atheism as a believer can be about his faith.It might even satisfy him and he wants others to be "free" and feel as he does.

    How can they ever know that they are offering something worthless and empty if it seems to fill them? The blind man might never know that he is defective if he has never known otherwise.

    (IMO) They see or have seen 'faith' but do not have it and don't understand it. The more they try to mock it and destroy it; the more it grows and the stronger it gets. This is a mystery to them. I think they just want to see what it is made of and why. Not all, but some are intrigued enough to consider allowing it to be proven to them. That is why one of the most asked questions on R&S is: "Can you prove that there is a God?"

    We're attempting to rid the world of ignorance, a public service.

    We should be getting tax deductions for the time spent doing this....

    Nil-ism is not the answer, for sure.

    Modern culture attacks things of faith, - and the only two choices for the human experience is to replace it with another faith-like foundation, - or be left with the hopeless and futility that comes with "nothing is sacred".

    Or maybe they're just not superstitious?

    atheism is also a belief system: a faith in scientific method.
