Christians claim that God is all powerful, all knowing, loving and the creator of the universe.
An all knowing deity would know of a universe where all his aims for the people of the universe would be achieved without any suffering.
An all powerful deity would be able to create such a universe.
A loving deity would want to create such a universe where there is no suffering of his creations.
But in our universe there is suffering, not only of adults, who you might argue have free will to "choose" to suffer, but also of children and babies that do not have the ability to make that choice. In fact we see small children and babies suffering due to "acts of God".
Hence our universe can not have been created by an all powerful, all knowing, loving deity.
Hence God can not exist.
Please feel free to point out the flaw in my logic.
It is possible that some deity that is not loving, or not all knowing, or not all powerful could have created the universe - but I see no good reason to think this is true. But the Christian deity - God - can not be the creator of a universe where innocents suffer.

Atheists know there is a God that’s why they are so obsessed with him. Stop being scared!!!

It's not that easy.
I wish I could just wrap everything in a neat little bow and have clean, perfect little answers for everything. But it's not that easy. I wish all of this made sense and could be explained. But it's not that easy. I wish my life had eternal, obvious meaning that I didn't have to look for. But it's not that easy.
I'm not a Christian because to me life doesn't have any easy paths or answers. There is no quick fix.

I'll give the same answer I always give...
As a child I could already see the hypocrisy of those who claimed religion. I could see how they used religion to put themselves above others and often the loudest to proclaim their religion were the biggest hypocrites.
As a teenager I saw the inconsistency of religious doctrine. How believers lied to explain why their claims differed from demonstrable facts. And, how religions contradict each other and how they often contradicted themselves.
As an adult I learned how all religious claims are based on logical fallacies. How even the concept of "God" was illogical on its face. I recognized that without presupposition, confirmation bias, and special pleading that none of the arguments for religions could hold up.
40 years an atheist.

Sure.
I was raised/indoctrinated into Protestant Christianity. But once I learned about other religions, I realized the chances were small that I had happened to be born into the correct religion. Then I learned about mythologies, that they were religions that people stopped believing in. It seemed obvious that all religions were simply myths people still believed in.
This was about 35 years ago, and nothing I've seen or heard or read since has changed my mind or even made me doubt that all religions and gods are just man-made myths.

Sure - it's quite simple, really.
Imaginary god creatures are not real and do not exist.
That includes the mythical BuyBull-god and the mythical jesus creature.

Imagine this scene:
I open my morning mail, and I have received TWO invitations.
One is from a group of people who SINCERELY BEL<IEVE that a man was born of a HUMAN mother and a NON-human father, and that this man at various times changed water into wine, glowed like a firefly, walked on water, died, became NOT dead again, and floated up into the sky.
None of them SAW him do any of that, but somebody TOLD them he did, and they believe it.
And they invite me to join with them at a specific time and place, to offer that man praise and worship.
They have no EVIDENCE of their claim, but they BELIEVE it to be true.
WHY should I go and join them?
The second invitation is from a group of people who SINCERELY BELIEVE that it was YOU who kidnapped, tortured, murdered, and ATE a missing child.
None of them saw you DO it, but somebody TOLD them you did.
They invite me to join with them at a specific time and place, to drag you into the street and KICK you to death for the crime.
They have no evidence for their claim.
Should I join them?

I grew up with brains instead of just believing what my parents told me.

Christianity is wrong. Provably so.
Under those circumstances, I wonder why anyone is christian.
Their bible is the most completely debunked book ever written. It debunks itself.

Nothing supernatural exists and that rules out all gods.
