Why do Christians keep trying to convince atheists their religion is true?
"I mostly only answer questions. If you don't want me to argue for the truthfulness of my position, don't ask me to."
I'm just asking why it matters. If the religion is true after all, its truthfulness wouldn't hinge on how many people believed it, right?
"Its annoying but if you have been here before have you noticed the opposite? I have,"
Yeah, that's actually kinda annoying too. I'll give my opinion, but it really doesn't matter one way or another how many people agree with me.

Why do people who don't believe in something go out of their way to psychologically distance themselves by insulting and demeaning those who do.
It's a means of a self assertion\affirmation as to ones own belief in their paradigm.
Hence why we say Atheism is a religion, it's simply a perverted belief system. The opposite of belief, actually you all do a great job of making yourselves look pretty disgusting.
Many of the more intelligent Christians and those of other faiths and beliefs can really see what you're all doing here and in many other places even in the physical public sector.
You're insecure, if you had A. Nothing. Then you would have B. No reason to be here.
Ta da!
Figured out, funny this answer was so well thought out, I guess that's what happens when you actually have something to go on.
Other than hate and the killing of your ego.
Oh did I mention that Atheism is a veneration of self hate nihilism narcissism and anarchism?
Have fun with that bunch.
Good luck.
God is real.
Not someone I would take lightly.
Just pointing out the signs of the age.
Atheism is a perversion.
Always has been and always will be.
It's a product of Satan.
I bet your inner self is pissed, you will probably just keep doing as exactly as I described.
Ask God for forgiveness and to be in his grace.
He's a great being, please don't turn him down because of your pride.
Source(s): Me and the study and observation of the Atheist movement all over the net, it's a joke. Sad it's catching on, as it would. Just the times ya know. someone said" for the same reason atheists come here to push their beliefs on us" That's what I'm pointing out, this is our ground not yours. You simply expose yourselves. This is territory you can't contend with when it comes right at your front door. We own this area. I'm a Christian, believers in other things I will stand with them other than you. That says what I think of those who come here as they do. You have no place here, two words, utterly pathetic. - 10 years ago
This question is growing more and more annoying.
For the same god damn reason that atheists continually try to convince Christians that god doesn't exist. Arrogance and the intolerance of others they don't understand.
Both sides are convinced that they are right, and both sides like to overlook the fact that, that arrogance and intolerance is what is causing the problems. Not religious faith of the fallible logic of man.
Maybe everyone should stop arguing, take a step back, and look at what they are doing. But if it were that simple none of this would even be an argument.
There are always going to be different beliefs and opinions. No one will ever look to one faith or one line of logic for the answers. There will always be people arguing over them. That's not going to stop.

Firstly, a religion is nothing but a cult that finally made it. But in order to maintain a membership it has to dumb down its members to keep them. That is the reason they want members in church every week and in some case everyday if possible. Sort of like mini refresher courses, then some members begin to think that god is talking to them and telling them to go out and use sneaky tactics to try to convert another person. An atheist would be the ultimate convert, that would be a large mark on the converter's bible.

do no longer you comprehend that atheists and evolutionists have faith that issues like this in basic terms take place and not because of the fact of an sensible layout. It in basic terms so happens that residing organisms have the skill to evolve and evolve....there is not any incorrect way of explaining this scientifically different than the "WILL" for a residing organism to stay to tell the tale. How dare you easily provide credit to three "stupid" bigger capability for the fascinating layout of the human physique. lol in basic terms bear in mind for each rational question you think of you have the non believers will counter with something else consistent with technology. proceed to have self assurance in what you have faith in. it relatively is all i'm able to truly make it easier to comprehend. in the tip we will all locate out who's correct and who's incorrect.

"Why do Christians keep trying to convince atheists their religion is true?"
That's funny coming from you hypocrite.
Antichrists aka atheists stake out the Religious YA Forum like ravenous wolves.
You people should be staking out the Science Section, why do you come to the Religious section?
I'll have the Lord our God explain to you why.
King James Version Bible
Romans Chapter 1
28. And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29. Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30. Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31. Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32. Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Sometimes, marketing. They want to sell us Christianity so we put money into it to be spent reinforcing their delusions. It's a vicious cycle.
Sometimes, Chicken Little. The sky is falling! The sky is falling! Must tell everyone!

To put it into self-demeaning and degrading terms, picture it as the equivalent of an old-world Italian Nonna repelling the evil eye when you have a headache. You might not believe it works, but she does it because she believes it does and most of all, she loves you and doesn't want you to feel sick.
