There is absolutely no logic in their world view. Hell, heaven, judgement day, rapture, angels, spirits, flying horses, defying gravity, virgin conception etc. Complete horse shit. All of them.

. I mean, might God not be living on the other side of Jupiter? Ever been out there to check on it? ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) no, but I think this dude has.... ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fscrapsfromtheloft.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2017%2F01%2F2001-A-Space-Odyssey-Bowman-inside-the-bedroom-decorated-in-a-palatial-1700s-French-baroque-Louis-XVI-style.jpg&t=665&c=khZg3lsJcWN94A) Damn!... now I wanna do some acid ...lol...

The idea of Jupiter was simply an example. Even if that dude in your link went out there and checked all of Jupiter, there are multitudes of places in the universe where God might exist, and where nobody has gone before. I can understand why you might want to do some acid. You are finally coming to understand how non-atheistic you really are. Don't overdose. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

So, if anything, you are more "Complete horse shit. All of" you. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Just like how some Christians criticize Atheists for not believing in God, they do the same to us. I am Catholic myself, but I think it's God's choice on to choose a person's religion. Some Atheists just don't believe in religion, but don't criticize others for believing, but then get tired of the believers who try to change them so much. I've seen that happen to a friend of mine multiple times.

I do not hate all religions, in a religion has its own teachings, and every religion has different beliefs and rules so atheists themselves have rules that justify every mistake in the right, and there are some unfair facts and teachings in deciding a problem, for that we have seen and heard the degree of women in the lower levels in comparison with men's degree and why should be treated like that.
If you hated religion in general, you would hate atheism too, because atheism is a religion. You would even hate your own life, because the definition of religion, for you, includes the way you live... the combined motives behind the things you do... your religion. See the definition of religion at http://www.dictionary.com/browse/religion?s=t. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Why did God create contradicting religions (5000+ and counting)? Why did God create Atheists? He created these religions, by listening to people's inner thoughts, and then giving them the religion that would help them turn to Him for salvation the most. That's why people choose and have various religions. It's what they need to find the true religion that provides salvation from death into eternal life. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

I would create one solar system, not billions of solar systems. Most of them devoid of life. If I were God, I would create one universe and one Earth in the same instance, with all animals, plants and people in it. I would not create this universe and then wait 9 billion years to create Earth, then wait another 4+ billion to create man (in my own image LOL). I would not create multiple universes with different physical constants. What is the purpose? Trial and error, see which one works? The way you say he did things seems retarded at best. But then again, the 'Gods' (aka goat herders) that created religions were slight retards to begin with so we cannot expect them to come up with something that makes sense.

It is not that atheists do not like religion, it is that atheists do not like it when the religious tell them how to live their lives, or when theists imply that they are better people because of their beliefs: the idea, for example, that faith is a virtue of itself.
Nowadays, in the West, the theists who do these things are a minority - but still quite numerous. The argument about gay marriage, for example: theists saying that other people could not marry because of the theists rules. Wanting theologically inspired mottoes on civil institutions such as courts and money. Appealing to God in public ceremonies.

Of course atheists like religion. If they didn't, they wouldn't be atheists. After all, atheism is a religion, by definition. Look it up in complete dictionaries and encyclopedias. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Some theists think it is extremely dangerous even foolhardy to remove God from public life. A recent case in the UK highlights this well. Alfie Evans Foreshadows a Dark American Futurehttps://www.nationalreview.com/2018/04/alfie-evans-case-americas-future/

I think religion has one (original) use case: "To control how people think and behave".
But in today's Internet Age, religions have too much competition from political, all the *-isms, and anti-* movements.
The benefits of religious brainwashing (law abiding citizens) are overshadowed by all the negatives (regressive moral values, outdated social structures and rejection of the scientific method as an efficient way to learn how the world works).
The the "use case" of religion is to rectify humanity which includes rectifying how people think and behave. Personally I will keep my "regressive moral values", and my "outdated social structures".
