Some atheists are merely playing a part.
They believe in a god–just not the God of the Bible.
Why self-respecting atheists should ditch the New Atheists – This probably more properly belongs in the Media Narratives section. The author recognized that what he was being told by the churches wasn’t very appealing. In search of the truth, most who are turned off by the lies told in the churches sadly lurch into a new set of lies (atheism).
They reject the idea that fallible men might be misusing the Bible in order to deceive, so they throw EVERYTHING connected to God’s Word out–much to their misfortune.
The author also admits up front that what he used to believe in were fairy tales (“narratives“).
Though still far from religious, I no longer accept the more extreme narratives of the New Atheists, the certainty of their religious claims, and their historical view of religion. The atheist community would be well advised to chill out.
What he doesn’t admit is that he is still choosing between fairy tales.
The difference now?
He only believes the reasonable lies, not the outlandish (“more extreme”) ones.
Again, some atheists merely play a part.
They believe in a god–just not the God of the Bible.
To this end, they will promote and swear to believe in nothing.
THERE is still time to change direction (repent) and place one’s trust in Almighty God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

THE GOSPEL
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
—2 Corinthians 4:3
