In debates with atheists, the popular Christian YouTube video maker Shockofgod often asks atheists the loaded question, "Is God evil?". Invariably, so-called atheists quickly say yes. Then Shockofgod informs the "atheist" that they admitted that God exists.[1] Shockofgod also declares that Christians never accuse leprechauns of being evil because they know they don't exist.[2] See also: Denials that atheists exist and Atheism has a lower retention rate compared to other worldviews.
Don Batten of Creation Ministries International wrote:
| “ | Recently, I have had a lot of conversations with atheists. Many express a strong hatred of God. I have been at a loss to explain this. How can you hate someone you don’t believe in? Why the hostility? If God does not exist, shouldn’t atheists just relax and seek a good time before they become plant food? Why should it matter if people believe in God? Nothing matters if atheism is true[3] | ” |
The Christian evangelist Ray Comfort contends that atheists hate God because they know he does exist.[4] Comfort declared in 2009: "Atheists don't hate fairies, leprauchans or unicorns because they don't exist. It is impossible to hate something that doesn't exist. And that makes the point."[5]
