Evangelical Examiner Jake Jones is trying to piss off Atheists again: 

The problem as I see it is that Atheists seem to have a great deal of passion about …ah…ah…um……nothing. You got it, they have a passion for nothing. They don’t believe in God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, Heaven or Hell! So what do they believe in………nothing, that’s what.

Their passion for promoting their beloved Atheism is misplaced, and actually it’s a false passion. How do I come by this conclusion you ask? All one has to do is to read Atheist literature, listen to one speak, or simply have a discussion with an Atheist and you will soon find out that on the subject of Christianity, they defend their beloved Atheism so passionately that they actually make Christianity sound great because Christianity has a real foundation, Atheism has no foundation other than “they don’t believe”, and oh yeah, Darwin!

That’s a pretty sad worldview.  I can’t imagine someone having such a narrow view on life that the only thing they believe is worth having passion over is … god.  Something they can’t even see or touch or hear.  That’s a pretty big statement as to why religion can be so  harmful to people.  It fills up all the gaps with god so that there’s no room for … anything else.  At all.  Nothing bad, surely, but also nothing good.  Like having passion for nature or logic or, as someone put in the comments, “An atheist can be passionate about anything. Sunny days, dark chocolate, education, great art, football, you name it. Are you suggesting that you have no passion except for your faith”?
