Why Do People Come Here Who Don't Believe In God?
Why waste your time. Go and live your life doing something that makes sense to you and leave God fearing people alone.

What god?
You haven't yet told anybody about what god you are talking. there are many many many gods in writings and stories out there. So what god are you talking about. You kinda have to make it clear.
Second really this is a DEBATE SECTION. This is not a church, this is not a religious house.. this is a DEBATE AREA. Well maybe not true debates but certainly a place where different views come together.
In short, this is where you find all kinds of opinions, ideas and yes you also find non believers. Or those that belief in other gods.
After all this isn't a church this isn't an area for only one faith!
Hell even if this area was only about a certain faith within said faith there would be enough to debate about. How indeed, it is hard to find agreement between those of the same faith.

It is because God has put a place in every human that only He can fill and even though these people claim to not believe they are yearning for that place to be filled..Not realizing that the one they are rejecting is the only One who can fill that space.
There was a great celebration when Ben Ladin and Saddam were killed..but Jesus told the people of His day *except ye repent,ye shall all likewise perish* These people as brute beast..speak against things they do not understand..thus fullfilling the very words of the Apostles of the Saviour they claim not to believe in. I hope they will come to The Light. I am a believer and God is a wonderful Father !

ANSWER
When there is any word of God, there will be an op poser (Devil) there.
There are Two Roads, two sides,
Mathew 7:13-23
That's why.
13 “Go in through the narrow gate;+ because broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction,* and many are the ones going in through it; 14 whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are the ones finding it.+
15 “Be on the watch for the false prophets+ that come to YOU in sheep’s covering,+ but inside they are ravenous wolves.+ 16 By their fruits YOU will recognize+ them. Never do people gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles, do they?+ 17 Likewise every good tree produces fine fruit, but every rotten tree produces worthless fruit;+ 18 a good tree cannot bear worthless fruit, neither can a rotten tree produce fine fruit. 19 Every tree not producing fine fruit gets cut down and thrown into the fire.+ 20 Really, then, by their fruits YOU will recognize those [men].+
21 “Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but the one doing+ the will of my Father who is in the heavens will.+ 22 Many will say to me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord,+ did we not prophesy in your name, and expel demons in your name, and perform many powerful works* in your name?’+ 23 And yet then I will confess to them: I never knew YOU!+ Get away from me, YOU workers of lawlessness.+

Pent up frustrations. I'm a Satanist, and still find my way here. While I have several theories on atheism, to remain for a later date, I also do not believe in the Judeo-Christian "God" or literal Hebrew "Satan".

Not believing in GOD is a form of spirituality Atheism is a name for those people who spread those ideas, so this is their pulpit and we are the ones they are trying to convert away from our beliefs by hook or by crook.
- ANDRE LLv 78 years ago
“Theists, especially Christians, try to control and restrict us based on their views.
If all Christians stop crusading against science, education, culture, art, sex and sexuality, religious freedom and such, stop dishonestly misrepresenting your beliefs as facts, and stop telling everybody else they're going to be tortured throughout eternity unless they join you, I assure you that you won't encounter nearly as much hostility.”
‘Religious apologists complain bitterly that atheists and secularists are aggressive and hostile in their criticism of them. I always say: look, when you guys were in charge, you didn’t argue with us, you just burnt us at the stake. Now what we’re doing is, we’re presenting you with some arguments and some challenging questions, and you complain.’ A.C. Grayling
-With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.-
Steven Weinberg, quoted in The New York Times, April 20, 1999 US physicist
‘There once was a time when all people believed in God and the church ruled. This time was called the Dark Ages.’ Richard Lederer
-People who don't like their beliefs being laughed at shouldn't have such funny beliefs.-
-People like you remind me of how religion is like a penis. Nothing wrong with having one. Nothing wrong with being glad you have one. However its naive to expect to go waving it around in public and not get any negative responses.-
"You talk to God, you're religious. God talks to you, you're psychotic." - Dr. Gregory House

UFO sighting[edit] Wikinews has related news: Former Arizona Governor says he saw a UFO during the 1997 Phoenix Lights
In 2007, Fife said that he had witnessed one of the "crafts of unknown origin" during the 1997 Phoenix Lights event, but noted that he didn't go public with the information.[9][10][11][12]
In an interview with The Daily Courier in Prescott, Symington said:
I'm a pilot and I know just about every machine that flies. It was bigger than anything that I've ever seen. It remains a great mystery. Other people saw it, responsible people. I don't know why people would ridicule it.
—Fife Symington III, [13]
It was enormous and inexplicable. Who knows where it came from? A lot of people saw it, and I saw it too. It was dramatic. And it couldn't have been flares because it was too symmetrical. It had a geometric outline, a constant shape.
—Fife Symington III, [14]
However, when he was Governor in 1997, Symington promised he would look into the mass sighting, but then quickly ridiculed it at a press conference where he had his chief of staff dress up in an alien costume, telling reporters that they had found the culprit. His explanation today is that as a public official he felt a responsibility to avoid public panic and therefore tried to introduce some levity into the situation.
On November 9, 2007, Symington appeared with a panel of guests discussing their UFO experiences on Larry King Live. A few days later, on November 12, Symington acted as moderator for a UFO press conference at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. Other speakers included U.S./foreign military witnesses/public officials involved in some major UFO cases, such as the 1980 Rendlesham Forest incident, 1990 Belgium UFO incident, and 1976 Tehran UFO incident, and heads of some official foreign government UFO investigations, such as Nick Pope in the U.K. and Claude Poher of France. They said the phenomenon was quite real, should be taken seriously, and urged that the U.S. reopen its public UFO investigation.[15]
Symington also appeared as a witness of the Phoenix Lights in an updated version of the 2002 UFO documentary Out of the Blue by filmmaker James Fox. Fox helped organize the witness panels for both the Larry King show and follow-up National Press Club event.[16]
