God doesn't believe in atheist.
This was a sign I saw on a church billboard. Then a week later it said:

God Loves Atheists.

Church sounds a little conflicted.

1. it has contradictions on top of contradictions. like, if you do these things
they say you will go to hell. but then when person who did bad things dies, they say they are going to a better place. personally, i don't think god deals in labels. he looks at your life and how you treat others and that determines who gets into heaven.

6. How do you know a god exists, how do you know there's an afterlife?

3. for an atheist, that is the same as saying "the easter bunny doesnt believe in atheists."

8. Well, not quite........
The Easter Bunny doesn't represent himself as a threat to me. OTOH, God seems to more or less constantly be threatening me with damnation and/or temporal disasters.

Easter Bunny much cuter, also.

7. Neither does Huckleberry Finn
Nor Jay Gatsby.

A fictional character is limited to those "beliefs" that the author gives them.

But IF there were a god, wouldn't that god, if said god were worth a shit and able to retain the label, know that atheists exist?
