My husband directed me to the following article.  It kind of makes me sick that some athiests don't leave us or God alone, but put us down.  It's really kind of sad.  You can find the orginial post at  http://raptureready.com/nm/183.html

Why Atheists Can't Leave God Alone

Hardly a days goes by that Rapture Ready is not the subject of an attack by an atheist group. Because RR is the largest prophecy site on the internet, we are a natural target for people who hate God.

I usually find out about these attacks in one of three ways: 1) Our server traces all inbound links or registrations; 2) services such as "Google Alert" inform us when other websites mention RR; and 3) various people who lurk on atheists' sites inform us of their activity.

Like a moth to a flame, atheists keep coming our way. Here are four examples of atheists talking about their plans to cause trouble on our message board:

"Sometimes I get an irrational urge to prod a fundie. I create a user account on some fundie forum and toss a coin whether my persona is a Christian having serious doubts and pleading for help, or an all-out atheist looking to stir up trouble.

Somehow, posing as a fellow-fundie allows one massive latitude to post some outlandish crap. During our Rapture Ready Raid last year, I posed as uber-fundie and two of my nine posts made it."

"The website is called 'Rapture Ready' (thanks to Blueboy5 for finding it and planting the seed of this idea in my fertile brain). You can find it here: http://rr-bb.com/index.php.

These people not only seriously believe that The End Of The World is Nigh (Armageddon), but that it will herald the Second Coming of Christ, and that the Faithful (them) will be "Raptured" (Ascended bodily to Heaven for Judgment Day), but they also believe that it is just around the corner. And they are not only looking forward to it... THEY CAN'T WAIT!!!"

"I created a user account this last weekend - my username is "(A secret! Shhhh!)" I intend to 'lurk' for a week or so, to lend credibility to by persona, and then to proceed slowly.

My persona will be that of a middle-aged, naive, internet-illiterate, (hopefully) charming, archetypal Englishman, raised as a Christian, but agnostic for many, many years, and only recently 'returned to the fold', and curious about 'End Times' and 'The Rapture'. I shall attempt to be a middle-class English gentleman: gentle, affable, friendly, kind, eccentric, slightly scatty, and fairly well educated (and - crucially - therefore, with some {to them} unusual/unorthodox ideas). I shall invent a computer- literate son to aid my technical learning process, and to bring in later as an unexpected agnostic/atheist crisis."

"I will not underestimate my opponents (I hope). These people are not stupid. Misguided, delusional, irrational? Yes, perhaps... but not stupid. Also, I have no training or experience as an actor, and this is my first real OM. (This is not the first OM I have thought of, but it is the first one I have tried to put into practice) Again, if necessary, I will be relying on my innate charm, groveling skills. How effective these are remains to be seen."

Atheists don't seem to be able to let go of God, and I think this is their fatal flaw. If they truly wish to put Christianity into the grave, they need to devise their own workable faith and let God die from neglect.

Christianity vanquished the pagan gods of Europe by giving people an alternative that brought meaning and fulfillment to their lives. Atheism just leaves people with the empty reality that life is the result of random chance. The only thing that seems to unify them is their hatred of a common enemy.

The two most popular books in atheism today are The God Delusion and God Is Not Great. Instead of laying out a blueprint for an atheistic, utopian society, Richard Darkins and Christopher Hitchens spend most of their time throwing rocks at a deity they don't believe exists.

The situation reminds me of how Donald Trump conducted himself in his public feud with Rosie O’Donnell. Trump claimed be above the fray, but he continued to engaged in a bitter name-calling war with O’Donnell. What finally shut him up was the realization that he was making a fool out of himself.

Militant atheism will soon find that it’s been playing the role of jester. When the rapture takes place, the people who mock God will quickly find themselves facing overwhelming evidence of God’s existence. As I said before in an article, I think prophecy has already provided enough evidence to prove that these people are making a Sucker's Bet.

All atheists need to realize that there is no “none of the above” option. You are either on God's side or you are on the devil's side. That uncontrollable urge to lash out at Christian sites like RR comes because you are wearing the team uniform of the one who is in rebellion against the Creator of all things.
