Why don't people believe in god?

[FUKO]

Most ******s do, but for those who don't, why??

[Empire]

Because they have the luxury to no to.

[666HiddenMaster666]

Because they believe that the humans are god
If everyone is special, then no one is special
Thus, no god

Real problems are something that most atheist have not gone through. they simply go "there is no proof" like its some internet debate.

Meanwhile never facing any real hardships.

[Weed Farmer™]

"there is no proof" excuse is just tard

[Toxic Waltz]

Because there is no reason to believe in god.

Because there is no reason to believe in god.

There is no actual reason for you to live either. Woop-de-doo.

You've said this before..
even though I wasn't always an Atheist, I am now..
and like I said before when I responded to this,
I've been though quite a bit, from losing loved ones to losing my mind..

I don't believe any more because the only thing I had to go by was the Bible,
and some vague writings of a few Historians.
The Bible just has way too many inconsistencies..
It's like you find one thing that doesn't seem remotely plausible,
and that's like tipping over the first domino.

Wtf does going through "real" problems have anything to do with whether or not there is a God? That entire notion rests on an appeal to emotion. There being no evidence for a god is a perfectly good reason to not believe in one.

I'll just forward that idea, I've been through a lot, I've seen family members close to me go through much more too. And not to mention what kind of a being God must be to create this playground of his

I think it's all a test.

Lose = Hell

I object to the robber thing, because yes robbers do kill people. God is malevolent if he sends people to hell for not believing in him when he provides no reason to believe, no commandments to follow except those some claim he laid down thousands of years ago.

If God won't come down and speak to us and tell us what to believe, how can he claim he is more justified than Satan when he sends people to burn for worshipping wrong?

@Alen

See, it's not so much creating the "playground" for me..
It's creating our brains to be able to register so vividly what happens in this playground. I mean shit bro..how can you give us a gift so powerful as we all know the brain can be..yet damn us for being skeptics..?
The thing that really, truly swayed me away from Christianity, and I haven't told a soul this either..I am being 100% truthful, I know I troll a lot but hear me out here. The real reason I stopped believing? I've dedicated over 15 years of my life to being a Christian. Even when I was a small child..I was devout. If all the believers, and prophets and great men in the Bible that did right in Gods eyes received signs, and got to talk to Angels, and even God himself, why couldn't God give me a small sign that he walked with me?
When the best friend I had in the world died, why couldn't God tell me that he was there for me, that he would be my best friend? Where was God to pick my head up when I lost my girlfriend in a car accident? Just a simple sign for a devout believer. "James, I am here I am carrying you." That's all I really needed, but instead I just had to entertain the theory of God in my brain.
I realized after a long time, that it was me that picked me up through those hard times. Not God.

God gave humans free agency

Satan's plan was to make everyone perfect and whatnot, jesus' plan was to give everyone free agency and let them choose and prove themselves worthy to enter heaven

Satan = lost the game
Jesus = won the game

Thats why people do bad things. They choose to.
