Had some conversations with Atheists lately, this is what a conversation with God would sound like from my understanding of their perspective. This poem should not be construed in any way that I am an atheist, I am a firm believer in the Almighty for 50 years now!

Atheists open letter to God

Dear God

I don't know how to begin...let's see
how are you today? (no he doesn't exist...oh yeah)

I am writing you today...to clarify a few things!

First of all, the fact that I am writing you this letter,
does not in any way shape or form indicate, confirm,
affirm, or testify, or give testimony, or bear witness
to a belief or conviction that you exist, in any form whatsoever!!!

Speaking about your existence...I have denied your existence
and I wanted to know why you have not accepted my denial!
Don't you understand that my denial of you, (now as a consequence 
of aforementioned denial) you are hereby obligated to not exist.

My detailed analysis of facts as I understand them lead me to conclude that there is no Creator, no Intelligent Designer, and also I concur, believe, am convinced, have the conviction, that we(humans) are the product of evolution and random selection, after the big bang event.

So in conclusion, I would like to ratify my belief that you do not exist, I concur, and agree, and am bound by this letter witnessed by me, stating categorically,  unequivocally, that you do not exist.

Please refrain from indicating, manifesting, proving, supporting, in any way that you exist. Please respect my declaration of your non- existence and comply forthwith.

Not yours, not so sincerely,

An unbeliever

P.S   If by any chance I am wrong...please disregard the aforementioned letter
with my most sincere and humble apologies.

Oh! This is a lovely way to prove an atheist wrong. In fact, he himself proves it by the PS:)

Was a fun one, funny they feel sorry for us, think we're gullible and ignorant and uninformed, yet it goes against basic logic that our earth, with a precise atmosphere, exact distance from the sun,etc just happened by chance. Thanks again!

It's a conumdrum for sure, all the proof we see, they see the same thing and come to different conclusions. Have they done scientific tests to prove life comes from nothing, they can't. Sounds more like blind faith than science.Thanks WW for your comment!
