Are all non-believers disliked by God?
826382
Believer and non-believer is the division made by human beings to express their intolerance of a person having a faith different from ones own. God has no choice between the two. All are same for Him.

How about a non-believer's impression of you?\nWhy are you threatened by people who do not believe the same thing as you?  Why do you think that you're a better person because you've "found god"?  Your original question was why do people not believe in god, and would have been a great opportunity for you to actually learn something about other people, but then you ask what is your impression of non-believers.  So all you wanted was someone to validate your beliefs. \n"Too selfish and too high and mighty"???? I spend my life helping people and trying to do things for others, regardless of my faith.  It's the self-righteous jerks like you that are too high and mighty.  So go ahead, pat yourself on the back, you believe in god.  Whoopee-freaking-doo!  Aren't there christian chat rooms are something you can go to, if all you want is people to agree with you and tell you how right you are?

Hmmm.....I don't believe in God, Christ or the anti-Christ.\nTherefore, I don't believe in huntjames32.

"The disbelievers have their leaders"? Who are they? I haven't met them... And I don't think it's in the atheist character to actually accept a leader.\n\nAnyway, I don't agree with you. Nothing is more heterogeneous than atheism. I agree more with some believers than I do with some other unbelievers.

No, people who are non-believers are not bad people.  Bad people come in all denominatins [and lack thereof].  Take Torquemada, for example.  (Link 1)\n\nNo, it isn't necessary to change the mindset of secularists.  No one needs fear someone who isn't of a specific faith.  One needs fear evil people regardless of their faith and those who would force the same faith on all people even if it is against their will. (Check the news for sources on this mindset. :-{ )\n\nIf there is a Heaven or a Hell, we are taking the word of translators that they interpreted ancient texts accurately as to what those two domains represent.  We are also taking the word of a few amongst many that their version of an afterlife is the correct one.  It's like asking if a new species of fruit is safe to eat.  The people who answer may be right, or they may be wrong, but none can truly know for sure until after the fact of analysis or having eaten it.\n\nFaith is the same.  You accept or reject it depending on your needs.  Some people do not need the threat of Hell or the promise of Heaven to be happy and whole just as they don't need to know if there is anything beyond death to be unafraid of living.  Anyone who will claim otherwise is speaking of their faith within the context of religion and should change their way of thinking to encompass the reality that "all faiths" includes no faith.

I am very respectful toward people who are Believers.\n\nEveryone in my family believes in God, but even if they didn't I would still be respectful.\n\nI've come to being an atheist after years of searching and trying to believe but not being able to convince myself....so this did not just happen over night.\n\nPlease do not paint us with the same brush. All atheists are not the same nor to we want to be.

Christians hate you for not being a Christian, they hate me too,\n\nWhat the Bible says about Non-Christians\nThey are without God. \n\n"Whosoever ... abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God." -- 2 John 9 \n\nThey are all antichrists. \n\n"For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist." -- 2 John 7 \n\nThey should be shunned. Neither marry nor be friends with them. \n\n"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? ... Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord." -- 2 Cor.6:14-17 \n\nThey should be killed. \n\n"If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers; Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you ... Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him: But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people. And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die." -- Dt.13:6-10

Good Question....I think most people hate Athiests for the same reason people hate christians.. No one wants to hear your reason or philosophy for your belief/dibelief in god. Because you cannot prove it either way. It is an endless arguement which all sides, religious or athiest, claim to be right....And neither side can prove the other wrong without a shred of doubt. Sometimes Claiming you are right is just as bad as a person Claiming you are wrong.

I agree that many people feel that their belief system is the only correct one.  This is blind and absurd.  Regardless of what a person believes, or how he/she got to that point, it should be respected.  Many people accept Christianity, Judaism, etc. w/o going through the process of disecting it and searching one's soul.  Others study the bible, quaran, torah...study science, discuss ideas with others and come to the best conclusion that one can come to with our limited source of knowledge on earth.\n\nSo, as believer in God and His power - I would never tell you that you can't express your opinions simply b/c your belief system in a higher power is different than mine!!\n\nHowever, I dislike the "annoying atheists" as much as I dislike the "bible thumping Christians" - the ignorant, pushy, arrogant few in ANY group will always give the majority a bad name.  So just as I respect your beliefs, and you seem to respect mine, I will consistently hold everyone else to the same expectation and will do my best to fulfill this myself.

They are blind and know nothing. christians CANNOT HATE. \n\nNIV\nMt 7:21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. \nMt 7:22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ \nMt 7:23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

I am a born again christian, and really and truly I am not intolerant of non believers. \nmy social circle ie my best mates in the  world who I couldnt live withou include\nhindus \nmuslims\nhomosexuals \nand athestis(spelt wrong?)\n\ni do not try and convert them or change them in anyway.\nof course conversations turn to religion at times and them i give my views, as do they.\nto be quite honest I personally believe that christians get a raw deal.\nperhaps because we dont retaliate as vermently as some other's when our believe system is mocked.\n\nwe are not all God botherers/Bible bashers.\nif someone wants my opinion on a religious subject I'll give it but most times it's ignored out of hand simply because it's a christian view. I have never forced my opinion on anyone.\n\nI believe that God has chosen those who will get to know Him.\nthere are different types of people with different priorities concerning the spread of thier faith.\nmy sister in law gets on even my nerves!!!\nshe does not generally associate with non belivers (unless she is in a situation trying to preach God's Word)as she feels this would affect her way of life. that is her personal convictions.\nthey are not the same as mine or lillions others.\n\nI believe that people should be able to see the way many christians live their lives and feel inspired to know God.\nsome do some dont. thats life\n\npls dont critise or condemm all christians in the same boat. just as most of us dont condemm non believers of believers of other faiths.\nthis is a multi cultural world and we have to accept everyone.\nLet him without sin throw the first stone\n\nx

I don't know exactly which people you are talking about who are intolerant, and I don't doubt that there are some - even many - in every religion. In fact, I find that to be the case in particular among so-called atheists and agnostics, as evidenced by several of the answers you have received to this question. They seem to have this core belief that all Christians want to force Christianity down their throats, and are intolerant of their choice not to believe in God. But for the most part I don't believe that is the case. The truth is that most believing Christians believe that their faith expresses an absolute truth, and they would be happy to share it with others, but if the others choose not to believe it, they accept that (even if it may sadden them). On the flip side, it generally tends to be the atheists and agnostics who cannot stand to have someone believe that there is an absolute truth and that they possess it. They tend to want to force believing Christians to abandon their idea that there is such an absolute truth, and that what they believe is one of any number of possibilities.\n\nSo in the end, who are the intolerant ones?

Good questions!  I like good subjest matter.  God is not some bug eyed monster up in the sky.  Why would he be all hateful when he needs us as much as we need him?  We do have free will, and i can do whatever i want because of it, but heres the rub, i was created by something with a view of the bigger picture.  So by virture of where i was born and my personality there are huge sections of human reality that will never even occur to me to do because of who and what i was made to be. Example : kiss my boyfriend, you betcha!; eat chocolate covered ants, hell no!

It seems to be human nature to hate those who are different from us. I guess my advice is to show them that you don't need to believe in God to be a good person. Do volunteer work maybe. Or an easier solution would be to ignore them.

People hate what they don't understand or what they fear. Isn't it peculiar to have one religion "hate" another religion. God must really love that.

Jesus does not hate anyone, not you or me or anyone.\nThere are things that seem too much for us at times but, it's not because the Lord hates us, it's because we have lost our way, and have forgotten about him, that is all.\nWhen you stop having faith, that is when we are at our lowest points, and if we just ask for his help, he will give, but it's up to you, you have to believe, in order for it to work.\nI am sorry for your sorrows but, just try to change what it is you are having trouble with, what is a failure but, a try?\nIf you don't try how can things change?\nGood Luck, Just don't give up okay.
