Atheists are not necessarily "idiots"...of course, some are (like any other group), but not necessarily and/or categorically.
Agreed. No--I would never suggest such a thing. And it's also intellectually dishonest, or ignorant, at least, to make a blanket statement about all Christians.

On the other hand...most are illogical in their views about "God" existing...and they lack the typical ("normal") perceptive abilities possessed by the vast majority of people (85-90%).
That is not casting aspersions...just stating how it is in this world.
Just stating how it is in YOUR world. Reality disagrees with you.

There is only one Reality.
If you did not lack the God Perceptive abilities that the vast majority possess...you'd perceive the existence of God like they all do.
But you don't, because you can't. So.......
Though, you do have my sympathy about that. It is a terrible deficiency. I will pray for you.
Belonging to a church and having genuine, saving faith in Christ as Lord and Savior are not one in the same.
Sure, but you said he "doesn't believe in Jesus". Who are you to make that judgment when he openly affiliates himself with an organization that demonstrably does believe in Jesus?

I'm a Christ-follower gifted with discernment who is commanded by God to judge other professing believers based on what God's self-revelation in Scripture tells me.

This is a good example of the snide reality of how god-believers think. They know that non-believers probably don't appreciate their christian (for example) prayers, so they publicly state they're going to pray for them. You keep talking about the insults by atheistis. You need to look at your own.

THAT, "non-believers don't appreciate prayers" is what's probative, as per dealing with "snide" attitude.
Only miserable haters think people praying for them is "bad" or somehow "mean". You see/hear about people praying for others everywhere you turn, all the time...about everything. THAT is Reality. If it's "snide & insulting"...then almost everyone could be labeled as such.
It's actually a very nice thing to do...and only the darkest of personas would view it otherwise.
You all need to get hip to that.
