Why does it matter so much to atheists that God doesn't exis...

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

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.

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?

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

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

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

THE BIBLE IS THE PROBLEM!

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