Why does it matter so much to atheists that God doesn't exist?

Because these are not any gods rules we are talking about.

Notice that I said their rules, not any gods rules.

These are man made rules - made thousands of years ago for the use of the humans who lived thousands of years ago.

Why are Republicans so afraid of a strong leader like Vice President Kamala Harris? Are they worried if she becomes President she will make them look stupid?

Those rules that you are trying to reinstate are rules made by men who didn't know anything about the earth, nor anything about all of the other inhabitants of it. How can you not see that?

The people of the modern world have evolved past all of that nonsense.

And how do you deny hundreds of years of advancement in all fields of science?

Is BPD real or just an excuse?

My problem is that people who try to shove their rules down everyone's throats - including by physical force - DO EXIST .

IT does not matter, mainly because it does not exist.

A belief in a god is not the problem.

I do not personally care if you believe in a god or not.

Why in my 60s do I have a strong desire to suck cock and swallow?

I am speaking to the US Bible thumpers here, of course ~ many of whom are flat-earthers who deny evolution and see scientists as evil people who are constantly trying, and succeeding, in disproving their beliefs one by one.
