Atheists have almost never been pushed around by Christians. Rather, they have been invited, possibly scolded in a loving way, requested, enticed, and loved towards accepting and receiving eternal life for themselves.

They call an invitation to eternal life an attack against them. Well, it might be, since all atheists are asking for is death for themselves. Oh sure, they are so subtle about it, that they don't even recognize what they are doing most of the time.

Oh, well. Guess we'll simply have to let them have what they want. After all, even Jesus taught in ways that suggested to leave atheism, and other false religions, alone when their people were obstinately against eternal life. And He taught His disciples to shake the dust off their feet against unbelievers.

I mean. Who has time to live life? Certainly there are people out there who will accept eternal life when  invited. Allow those atheists to have the damnation they are asking for. Go after the people who will accept.

For you Christians who read this, remain strong in your faith. Read the Bible regularly, or listen to it on Bible tapes and CDs. That is where your faith comes from. The Holy Spirit works faith through His Word. Keep on keeping on. and find more people to reach with salvation when those you invite continually reject. We are a Brotherhood/Sisterhood aiming for the skies.
