    Who would be willing to die for their faith? The Atheists? I doubt it very much. If a Muslim stood there with a gun or sword and said believe in Islam or die they would quickly surrender. There have been millions of Christian martyrs but I've never heard of an Atheist martyr. Have you?

    He did not create atheists. God created all souls having freewill. One third of the souls turned against God in the beginning. The final generation mostly consists of those souls. These would be the atheists and non-Christians or antichristians. It is believed that God created 12 billion souls:

    12 Billion

    1/3 = 4 Billion

    There are currently about 6 Billion+ living on earth....Only 1/3 third of the worlds population are Christian. A direct opposite to what happened in the beginning. It is up to each individual to make up his own mind about what he believes because God will judge each soul accordingly.

    Atheist only as the logical independent analytical basis basis. They will change only when some sort of strong evidence is shown or revealed. where as christians faith are based on the family background only and just developed habit.

    It depends on how you define stronger. Christians are probably stronger in their beliefs because most atheists are open-minded. Most atheists have considered looking at all viewpoints before becoming atheist. Therefore, a Christian that has always believed just one thing will have a stronger belief, but that does not make them any more right.

    I do be given that a few christians have a powerful religion, I simply do not care. If you wish to suppose in a god or gods, be my visitor. What i do not like is being screamed at within the streets that I am going to hell, persons no longer getting identical rights, youngsters being taught nonsense, legislation being converted to fit a devout institution, warfare being made within the title of god, or terrorist acts within the title of god. I am atheist, however I have got to endure given that of faith. Therefore, I have a correct to remark on it and to have an opinion on it, given that it impacts me and my existence every day. Plus, a few peopel have a powerful religion within the loch ness monster, I do not uncover this admirable. Theism isn't any higher.

    Christian, because we faith in the eternal God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. Atheist only have faith in themselves, objects or science, all of which are fallible.

    The strongest faith is the one based in truth. That would be Christianity. However, it has been said that more faith is needed in order to be an atheist, based on what one must accept as true to subscribe. By contrast, Christianity has more verifiable elements than atheism has.

    A true Christian because they have true faith. Atheist do not really have faith but rather a lack of.

    Christianity wins by default, since you don't need any faith to be an atheist.

    Oh, christians -- no doubt. Because there is no "Faith" in atheism.

    But that's not a good thing, mind you. "Faith" is worthless, nothing but imagination without evidence. Having "faith" in something is not a virtue.

    Take a look around the world at the myriad of silly, contradictory, ridiculous things various people have "faith" in...and you'll get the point.

    Peace.
