Oh trust me. I wouldn't be atheist for the mere reason that i wouldn't want to belong to a group of such, hateful, sarcastic, and sin loving people. I hate lying, hate cussing, don't believe in sex before marriage etc., and I was like that long before i became Christian. I would never want to be among atheists.

Your personal beliefs should have nothing to do with who you socialise with. I've been an athiest for... pushing five years now, and yet I am still good friends with a number of christians. They don't push their religion on me, I respect their right to believe what they want to believe.
And this is even going into the whole business of your assumption that every athiest is an unpleasent person. Many of us are quite nice, really.
You sound like the Pharisee from one of the stories that Jesus told in the Gospel of Luke. You remember that one, don't you? The Pharisee who prayed in the temple, thanking god for making him so different form other men? You remember what Jesus had to say about that Pharisee, right?
Didn't think you did.
Cussing and sex before marriage are two of life's greatest joys - and I know a train load of believers who do both, often. And like to brag about the latter, to boot.
However, feel free to leave us the fuck alone, Magus55.
We call people bad names too. That's how we can tell whose an atheist. I'm sure you'd never call people hateful, or sarcastic, or sin-loving, or - Oh wait...

Cussing and sex before marriage
The way I hear it, there's more cussing
and less sex after marriage.
"I hate lying, hate cussing, don't believe in sex before marriage etc."
Oh, wow, yeah, because NO christians do any of that...

Most hate seem to come from fundies towards atheists, who are more prone to laugh at fundies. Sarcasm is fun. Sin is an arbitrary concept, and most atheists stick to follow the laws and good morals towards other people, rather than kissing up to a sky-bully regardless of how people around you fare from your behavior.
I hate lying too. The Orange Clown obviously loves it.
Cussing can be fine if it's done in moderation, but if every other word is a swear-word it becomes pretty boring. My father-in-law cusses a lot sometimes, and it only sounds low-brow, ignorant.
Don't like sex before marriage; don't have any. Why is the "I do" in front of a judge or priest so important? I didn't feel any different after I got married. I just had more expensive household things afterwards.
You became Christian? What were you before? Or do you mean that before you were just moderate Christian, now you're Saved, Reborn, Fundie?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
