[quote]I do not understand why someone who does not believe in God has any desire to get someone else to look at life that way? How is not believing in something worthy of persuasion? I think there's an annoyance when public figures profess their beliefs (Tim Tebow comes to mind). I think the envy comes from the fact these people are always happy...not much for her politics - but even Palin is always happy. It is kind of the way people can get jealous over another's success. I think it's kind of sad. To be fair, I do not like the way some Christians heep their beliefs on others either either...but getting someone to convert to a belief in "0" is strange and kind of sad. [/quote]
In my experience, those who try to persuade others of anything, in a hateful manner, just are people who think they have all the answers, and know the answers - whether they are Christian, Athiest, whatever. Also, I think a lot of them (the Athiests who do this) are those who have had negative experience with Christians...so instead of only choosing not to believe in God, maybe they also choose to dislike the entire religion and all of those in it, because of those negative experiences. Can't say I necessarily blame them - however, even I, as a Christian, have had negative experience with other "Christians" (on this board for example) - not all who call themselves Christian are a good example of Christ - and instead of disliking everyone, I do believe most are not that way, and certainly not all. I always hate to hear of someone turning away from God because of how some Christians choose to act.
