Sorry, you got that wrong
Just because SOME atheists change their minds, does not mean that all atheists are like that. You are 100% certain that there is a God, yet how many Christians have become atheists? I at one point believed there was God, when I was really young. Now I truly am positive, your 100% there, that there is no God. Of this I have no doubt. And thanks to reading the posts here on Blogit written by believers, it has only helped me to see that I am not mistaken in my beliefs. Is there some higher intelligence out there? Maybe. But it is NOT the God of the Bible or really anything that should be labeled God or a god in any fashion.
To claim there are not true atheists by your reasoning here also clearly says that all beliefs are untrue since people of ALL faiths do change their minds and follow other systems of beliefs. The reasoning you used is in essence an attack against all faiths in the end, not just atheism.

Atheist Wannabees?
Interesting take on that topic, I must say. I enjoyed this post. I feel that there are some people who feel that they are above others when it comes to intelligence, even though they are not, and this lends itself to taking on God. I believe that they feel as though they are Gods or at least mini-Gods. They seem to feel above others. There are some atheist that I believe really do believe there is a God but they hate Him. However, you have given me another angle to think on here. Thanks for a great post!

Those who deny God are Atheists, unless like Saul, they get a wake-up cry!!!

That is a very interesting take on it.
I have never looked at it that way before. Having an atheistic mindset must require a daily renewing of faith in what they believe.
