I've come to the conclusion that there are mainly two types of so-called atheists.
On believes there is God but is just in so much denial that he is hardened to it and fights to keep convincing himself and everyone else that there is none.
The other certainly believes there is God but is simply lying about lack of belief to deceive on behalf of working for Satan.
So I take what they say about their atheism with a big grain of salt.

And I've come to the conclusion that there are two kinds of fundies. Rectalinguists, like you, and the brainwashed zombie hordes of the Night of the Living Brain-dead. You are by far the worse of the two.

On suspects there is no God but is just in so much denial that he is hardened to it and fights to keep convincing himself and everyone else that there is one.
The other certainly believes there is no God but is simply lying about belief to deceive on behalf of his pastor and his family.
So I take what they say about their fundie Christianity with a big grain of salt.
There. Fixed.

OOoooh, it's a snaaaakke!
ok I had a look at this forum and uh this bit made me laugh:
"If I am wrong that God exists then I have lost nothing.
lol
Atheists, by definition, do not believe that a god exists. Really.
Both of your examples include the notion that atheists actually believe in God. Therefore, both of your examples are FUNDAMENTALLY wrong.
"So I take what they say about their atheism with a big grain of salt."
One about the size of Lot's wife, dropped on you from about 20ft up, hopefully?

One eats the raw flesh of babies that they sacrifice on their altars.
The other cooks sacrificial babies on their altars and then eats them.
See what I did there?
Apart from the wonderful points that previous posters have made - what's with the 'so-called' crap.
So-called is a term often used to denote something the that is incorrectly labelled and is often used disparagingly e.g. 'so-called expert'.
I hate to break it to ya buddy, but athiest is the correct term to apply to someone who does not believe in deities.
I'm a maltheist. I believe that your god is a schizophrenic retard. That's hard for a human to accomplish, I'm sure, but I'll concede that the syndrome is a manifestation of his "divine power". The only manifestation.
The only problem with Satan is that he had a lousy example to emulate.
The Christ has a higher lineage.
"Our minds are like that of a pail of muddy water. Everything in our lives keeps the waters stirred up and we cannot see the bottom of the pail. Give enough time for the water and dirt and sand to settle to the bottom of the pail"
-Somebody in the same thread, possibly FaithofAbraham..
Give enough time for my life to settle and I see how much shit is in it?
I can tell that from when it's swirling around.
And what is so exciting about the bottom of that pail anyway??
Can anyone get more disrespectful or dehumanizing than this? To completely denigrate another person's belief and substitute his own is beyond arrogant. Not only does it fly in the face of reality, it completely negates the other person.
Then again, what do you expect from people who refuse to believe a gay person's own experience of being gay ("I was born this way") and substitute what they want to believe ("It's a choice")?
I'm pretty sure there are atheists out there that don't believe in god at all. I'm one of them.
Mind you, judging from the actions of the majority of religious people, I don't think they believe in god either.
Classic fundie; they don't even believe it is ~possible~ to disagree with them.
So instead they believe that it is possible for someone to believe in their 'all powerful' god and still worship his opponent.
It's really sad what some people have to do to cope with reality. I mean, this guy is fucking pathetic.
It's like he literally CANNOT comprehend how someone could not believe in God.
I'm pretty sure that much salt is bad for you.
Of course, biologists worked that out, and they're a kind of scientist, so they must be in on the atheist conspiracy. So defy them by taking as many big grains of salt as you can! It'll get you closer to Jebus in no time at all.
Two kinds of Atheists. Ones who believe in God and are lying about it, and ones who believe in God and are lying about it.
Yep. Cleared that right up!
(Also, they aren't in the closet. They honestly don't believe.)
{sigh} Here we go again--taking St. Paul's point about the law of God being written in the hearts of men the wrong way (I'm pretty sure Paul was referring to human conscience, not every last strand of the Torah's laws!)...
Come on, adulating God is, according to Micah, only one-third of what he wants. The other two-thirds are loving justice and doing mercy. And actually, adulating God is better understood as "walking humbly with thy God". Many atheists have definitely taken two-thirds to heart. You...I'm not sure you've got the "humbly" clause down pat.
Atheism is being selfish, and not believe anything has energy or a life source so being atheist doesnt seem to bother anyone but the christians and no they dont believe in Satan, my boyfriend is an atheist and I have a first hand know how of what they do and you all need to stop mixing it in with "satanism"
I AM an atheist, and I know there are about as many "types" of atheists as there are atheists.
I learned more and more about religion in general and Christianity especially, and it all just made less and less sense, the more I knew. Suddenly there was nothing left, and it felt like a little bereavement, a loss.
A big grain? How big is that grain? Like a snowflake? A snowball? An iceberg?
