How do you know this and what would cause atheists to behave like this?
And they behave like this because they do not have correct knowledge, of why they are even exsiting on this planet in the first place, and they beieve that the aim of life is to persue sense enjoyment.
But sense enjoyment is something that even the hogs, dogs camels and ass,s can obtain.
A dog can have sex in the street, but a person will think he is very advanced because he can have sex in a big bed in a big hotel.
A dog eats what he can find and what his master gives him, but persons think they are very advanced because thay can eat in a fancy restaurant.
People think they are advanced because thay can travel quickly in cars and planes, or they can watch TV on a big screen, but this is not advancement....it just creates artificial life.
The whole world is distracted by artificial life, of fast pace living and sense enjoyment, with no higher goal of their actions.
You look at the city sky line, and see all those sky scrapers, and in all the tall buildings, there are millions of people working in artificial life.......we only really need food and shelter, so what is everyone doing.
Human life is meant for understanding why we are alive, and what is our real purpose for having this thing we call life.
Real religion is meant to inform us of our real purpose in life, but today false religion pampers to the material needs of the people, even telling them that slaughtering innocent cows is ok.
