IF you believe that GOD created everything, would you like to know why GOD created atheists?

Classic story from Chassidic literature explains it rather well.

    If you believe this kind of garbage then you know NOTHING about following Christ.  One of the greatest teachings of Jesus IS compassion for others.  Love your neighbor as yourself.  The reason any atheist at all is charitable to others is because God made them, not because they made themselves.  Morality comes from God, not ourselves.  Even still, most atheists love the praise of others for their charitable deeds.  They publish their deeds far and wide, and speak of these things boastfully.  And they love their rewards from men; from statues, to trophies and through being called a hero, and a great person.  The pride just swells within them, doesn't it.  They indeed are searching in vain for the praise of men.  Please read the words of Jesus and refresh yourself with the truth; after-all he did say...

    1“Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 3But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly. (Matthew 6:1-4)

    God does not create atheists.  The world creates atheists.  And all we can learn from them, is death.

    9“Woe to him who strives with his Maker!

    Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth!

    Shall the clay say to him who forms it, ‘What are you making?’

    Or shall your handiwork say, ‘He has no hands’? (Isaiah 45:9)

    As long as you have breath in your lungs, there is hope for you.
