These posters reject God for the same reason most do. They don't want anyone telling them what to do. They are not intellectual. They are rebellious.
There is that too. Apostle Paul said in Romans that people suppress the truth and unrighteousness because they wanna go their own way. Pascal said that people almost invariably arrive at their beliefs not on the basis of proof but on the basis of what they find attractive. A lotta people believe things just because they find them attractive, and maybe one of the attractive things about not believing in God is that there’s no moral accountability; you get to do whatever you want and never be judged for it.


Every day on this side of the ground is a win.
