Why does it matter so much to atheists that God doesn't exist?

My problem is that people who try to shove their rules down everyone's throats - including by physical force - DO EXIST .

And then use and ENJOY these fantastic scientific advancements every single day of your life?

I do not personally care if you believe in a god or not.

Why can't my adopted sister accept she is not part of my family because she isn't related? Why can't she stop calling my parents mum and dad?

IT does not matter, mainly because it does not exist.

The people of the modern world have evolved past all of that nonsense.

Notice that I said their rules, not any gods rules.

Did Trump show us once again that he is a master debater?

THE BIBLE IS THE PROBLEM!

Those rules that you are trying to reinstate are rules made by men who didn't know anything about the earth, nor anything about all of the other inhabitants of it. How can you not see that?

And how do you deny hundreds of years of advancement in all fields of science?

As a NATO/Ukraine supporter, since you're so blown away and angered by Trump putting Zelensky in his place yesterday, why don't you support the Ukraine by joining the Ukrainian army? There's 200,000,000+ of you. Put your money where your mouths are.

I am speaking to the US Bible thumpers here, of course ~ many of whom are flat-earthers who deny evolution and see scientists as evil people who are constantly trying, and succeeding, in disproving their beliefs one by one.

A belief in a god is not the problem.

Because these are not any gods rules we are talking about.

If Delta Force soldiers wanted to form a criminal gang, how dangerous would they be with all their equipment (explosives, rifles, vests, night vision goggles)?

These are man made rules - made thousands of years ago for the use of the humans who lived thousands of years ago.
