Why does it matter so much to atheists that God doesn't exist?

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

A belief in a god is not the problem.

THE BIBLE IS THE PROBLEM!

Why do people hate Nickelback so much? What makes them different from other popular bands like Linkin Park, Green Day, etc.? Is it just because they're Canadian or what?

I do not personally care if you believe in a god or not.

These are man made rules - made thousands of years ago for the use of the humans who lived thousands of years ago.

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?

What do people aim for when they meditate, and how do they do it properly?

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

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

And how do you deny hundreds of years of advancement in all fields of science?

How do I get my body in shape?

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

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.

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

If my lovely sister sleeps with my boyfriend, what should I do about her?

And then use and ENJOY these fantastic scientific advancements every single day of your life?
