I think a lot of atheists are just people who have been traumatized emotionally and intellectually damaged by shitty Christians, and now they have a hard time growing past the behaviour.
I agree. I was guilty of it once. Regardless of what one thinks of Christianity, it's important to remember that it is a foundation of western society. And in any aspect in which it's been pulled away, degeneracy has taken it's place. If Satan worshipping pedophiles who have monopolized most of the world can't get you to believe in Satan, then idk what will.
That was kinda the case with me. I walked the path of atheism because the Christians I knew were terrible at explaining their case, but I came to regret it and realize on my own that God is real. Once you've woken up, it's danged hard to go back to sleep.
Whenever an atheist family member has told me that we don't live in a Christian nation I gently remind them who's world they occupy by asking a simple question "Who's year is it that you are living in today?" Last time I checked it was still the year of our Lord 2021.
