Yes, I am an atheist. If you do a search on r/atheism before June of 2023, you will see I was an extremely active member of that subreddit.
But I'm guessing you're going to keep saying I'm lying.
FYI: You don't need to be a Christian to read the Bible, you can just be interested in history, mythology and folklore.
Edit: Not only am I an atheist, but I am a Jesus mythicist, albeit a non-traditional one.
Plus, I'm ethnically Jewish, which is why I'm a mod in c/Jewish.
Nice try though.
I am not doubting that you are an atheist because you 've read the bible (after all I wrote in my last post that I 've also read it) but because of your Christianity apologia.
As usual you answering a strawman and not me.
Is this you?
Because it's in your previous post.
So. I have pointed you to a link from some time ago where I make it very clear that the Jesus of the Bible is a fiction whether or not there is a 'real' Jesus.
This is one long con I'm playing. Not only have I fooled all of these atheists for years, I also fooled my fellow c/Jewish mod into their community so I can put forth my insidious antisemitic plan.
If only you weren't there to stop me. I curse you in the name of... I don't know, let me pick a random Biblical prophet with a funny name... Jahaziel.
I curse you in the name of Jahaziel! Gesundheit!
Edit: Habakkuk is pretty funny too. Makes me think of an Inuit name.
You can't read can you?
I did not deny that I question your atheism. I clarified that it is not due to you reading the bible but due to your defence of Christianity.
It doesn't really matter why you're insisting I'm lying about being an atheist, it's a silly thing to insist.
Seriously, how long exactly do you think I've been lying about being an atheist?

Now, are you finally going to give up this stupid game you're playing and admit I'm an atheist?
Edit: I guess I have my answer about what you're going to do. Run away.
