Athiests, if God doesn't exist, why do you have to deny his existance?
By denying God doesn't exist, Atheists are admitting that God exists!!

An honest question will always get an honest answer from me. But if you're just going to bait, you're not really interested in having a conversation, are you?
Atheists deny God exists so we can stop wasting energy on something that's only in our heads and get on with the business of finding out what the universe is really all about.
I used to give friends the same kind of advice about dating: you can't find the right woman if you're always chasing after the wrong one.

Well... as you may have read... your logic is obviously flawed. But i will answer the actual question a hand. We deny god because belief in said god DOES ACTUAL HARM, people justify horrific acts of intolerance, bias and cruelty in general. Im not saying that the belief in god has been a bad thing as a whole, but it has done alot of evil... however ironic that may be. It definitely put about a 500 year speedbump in the scientific evolution. Advanced we would be today had religion not persecuted many great early scientists? God knows lol

Ouch! I am not even atheist and that is some of the most absurd (that is my kind word for ignorant plus) logic I've come across lately. Hope you aren't, or weren't on the debate team:) So if you deny the existence of purple dragons with orange dream pops for toes and vinyl record wings then they exist?? Astute observation! Very sound logic. Carry on.

No, by denying god's existence we admit that the concept of god exists, and we admit that other people believe god exists. Just because I deny Harry Potter exists doesn't mean I admit Harry Potter exists (feel free to substitute your favorite fictional character if you don't like Harry Potter).
Your logic fails badly.

properly now. a minimum of you're honest with us and your self. Its too undesirable however, we are going to omit you in Heaven while God calls us homestead. you're saying that God is an a@@. shame on you for that. It repent-in a position. you're saying he's a terrorist chief and a murderer. Now come on, the place do you return up with this dribble. no longer from the interest of God i'm going to declare. he's none of those words you're labeling Him with. tens of millions have died in His call you're saying. no longer in God's call they did no longer, yet interior the call of the god of their faith did they die. I supply no appreciate for any faith that would not obey the Commandments that God, the i'm that i'm has given us. no longer many faiths obtainable prepare the Commandments. and pay attention you circulate and quote a action picture famous man or woman over the interest of God. I had to snort at that and you for this. shame on you back. that's what you may decide to be referred to as on your ideals. a finished INCOMPETENT fool.><>

Because I don't believe in a perfect existence (apparently "god" is perfect). Also, your logic makes no sense at all. Besides, if there was a god, why the hell would he give a **** about mere mortals believing in him? Does God need validation from mortals?

Most athiests are content. Unfortunately, many athiests spend their lives trying to convince others that God doesn't exist because they are insecure or angry about their own lack of faith. Its a sad and confused way to walk through life.

You realize you cannot create an argument for the existence of god based on a book that was written by men, right?

lmfao. that makes sense. by denying santa clause doesn't exist, am i saying to you that i really do think he's real? i mean, i'm not atheist, but really? how does that even make sense?
and they deny he exists because, while everyone has freedom to their own religion, when people start making dis-advances in our future by not accepting things that have been proven because it disagrees with the bible, it ends up hurting everyone.

By your logic every other pagan god must exist since Christians deny it.
