Editing Angry at God

Among many other [[ad hominem]] style arguments, [[apologist]]s often assert that [[atheist]]s are actually '''angry at God'''. A variation is '''atheists hate God'''.

While a very small number of atheists claim to have deconverted based on being angry at God, a person who remains angry at God is not an atheist. To be angry at something, you must believe in it. This indicates a basic misunderstanding about the meaning of the word "atheist."  On the other hand, it may simply be a veiled attempt to invoke the notion that [[Atheists know there is a God|there are no atheists]].
