It is foolish discussing god with people who have no concept of it. You don't talk colors to a blind man either, but you can make him feel blind.
So, why are you here? 

Ah, yes.  To make us feel blind.  And I do feel blind every now and again when I realize I have not seen the Invisible Pink Unicorn for awhile.  Since you are not blind, have you seen Her lately???

You're not the sharpest tool in the shed, are you?

Notice how the logo of the forum also says believers. I thought I'd come around.

By all means, come around.  But how much do you hope to discuss with 'blind' people?  Oh--I see (said the blind man), you aren't here to discuss, but to bring light to those who can't see.  How very kind of you.  Which gospel do you subscribe to?  New Testemant?  The World of Bugs Bunny?  Some other fiction?  Well, anyway, please tell us like it is, oh bringer of light.

It's the "I have the free will to ridicule"-testament. I'm sure you're familiar with that one.

Yeah difference there is you don't 'feel blind', you simply are blind. And I've seen schools teach blind children about colors based on other sensations like cold for blue, hot for rest, the color of sand and snow, all that.
You can tell people the story of god, but unlike sand and snow, you can't produce anything to show it as a thing that exists.

Atheists have a better understanding of the Bible than Christians do. Also, many of us have religious backgrounds. It's because we know the Bible so well that we don't believe in it.

It is equally foolish to discuss religion with theists.  They already are obsessed with theisms and afterlives.  They have lost the ability to examine the world factually.

You come here and call us "ignorants" and expect a warm welcome?
