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 .

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?

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.

Since the Brits can't steer their oil tanker, what makes them think they can take on Russia?

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

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

A belief in a god is not the problem.

Microsoft lays off hundreds of WA workers, weeks after companywide cuts - The Seattle Times

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

THE BIBLE IS THE PROBLEM!

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

What is something you saw while on an airplane that you couldn't believe?

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.

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

Is it possible that my TF caused a kundalini awakening in another person? He is famous because He is a singer. We have not met physically yet, but I have gone through kundalini awakening and DNOTS and their ongoing. I have also had soul recognition so I know for sure that He is my Divine Counterpart and I do not have any doubts about it. But it is indeed perplexing that somebody had an awakening at the physical level because of Him. Is it a test for me? I have a mixture of feelings. On one hand I marvelled at Him and empathised with the person and on the other, I doubt if this just a test for me. I would appreciate your pov. Thank you for much.

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