In the news today...Do atheists consider this their god?

Do you mean they consider the news to be their god?

Edit: Thanks for update. I think Artificial Intelligence is already their "god."

Not believing in God is fastly becoming the norm with the younger generation and is it any wonder? Christendom's clergy has promoted so many lies that when people are confronted with deaths or any tribulation they see the truth about these false teachers! Christendom's clergy base their teaching on how it benefits them from a sorce of power or financial gain! Religion has been the reason governments go to was, either religion or for natural resources!

When someone has a death they are told God took them, or God needed them in heaven! When something bad happens they are told they did something wrong and God is punishing them, or better yet they didn't give enough to the church!

This is because most beliefs are from pagan beliefs, Historian Will Durant observed: “Christianity did not destroy paganism; it adopted it.

What this means people will start leaning on their own understanding so we see evolution, agnostic, atheist, muslim and even most of the Christian beliefs!

They will put their hope in man made governments and in a false sense of security when in truth they are ignorant of what the Bible really teaches! John 17:3 says the taking in of knowledge means our everlasting life. James 4:8 says to draw close to God and he will draw close to you, but instead they draw away from God so he draws away from them and then the god of this world (1 Jon 5:19) takes over and blinds their minds (2 Corinthians 4:4) and then they will bring about all sorts of reasonings and beliefs at the whim of false teachers!

The Bible says exactly what is going to happen and 99% of the worlds population have no clue yet have access to the Bible but rely on someone else to explain their future! Like immortal soul, read Exekiel 18:4, it says the soul dies! The dead are in heaven, read Eccl 9:5 and Acts 24:15, it says the dead are in the grave and the ressurrection of the last day is when they will be brought back (John 11:24)! Not up in heaven but right here on earth!

So until the preaching work is done (Matt 24:14) there will be all kinds of new ways to follow but in truth the only right way has been right before them all the time!

Atheists don't believe in God or gods. They don't have the intelligence to research God. The Bible talks a lot about God, gods and atheists.

Psalm 92:6

Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)

6 Stupid people don’t know this.

Fools don’t understand.

(Psalm 10:3, 4) For the wicked one boasts about his selfish desires and blesses the greedy one;

He disrespects Jehovah. 4 In his haughtiness, the wicked man makes no investigation;

All his thoughts are: “There is no God.”

Psalm 14:1 King James Version (KJV) 14 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. The New World Translation says; (Psalm 14:1) 14 The senseless one has said in his heart: “There is no Jehovah.” They have acted ruinously, they have acted detestably in [their] dealing. There is no one doing good.

Isaiah 44:18

Living Bible (TLB)

" Such stupidity and ignorance! God has shut their eyes so that they cannot see and closed their minds from understanding."

Jude 16 These men are murmurers, complainers about their lot in life, following their own desires, and their mouths make grandiose boasts, while they are flattering others for their own benefit.

(Ecclesiastes 7:5, 6) 5 Better to listen to a wise man’s rebuke than to listen to the song of fools. 6 For as the crackling of thorns burning under the pot, so is the laughter of the fool; and this too is futility.

(Ecclesiastes 7:9) 9 Do not be quick to take offense, for the taking of offense lodges in the bosom of fools.

The discoverer of the “law of gravity,” Sir Isaac Newton, was another who was deeply impressed by the evidence of God’s invisible qualities that are to be seen in His creation. The following account relates how Newton testified to his belief in Almighty God:

Newton once had a skilled mechanic make for him a model of the solar system. Balls representing the planets were geared together so as to move realistically in orbit. One day an atheist friend visited Newton. On seeing the model, he operated it, and exclaimed in admiration, “Who made it?” Newton answered, “Nobody!” The atheist replied, “You must think I am a fool! Of course somebody made it, and he is a genius.” Newton then said to his friend, “This thing is but a puny imitation of a much grander system whose laws you know, and I am not able to convince you that this mere toy is without a designer and maker; yet you profess to believe that the great original from which the design is taken has come into being without either designer or maker!”

Newton’s friend came to acknowledge that the great Designer and Maker of all things is God. Surely we, too, as we look on the marvels of creation about us, in the heavens and on earth, must acknowledge that an all-wise Creator made it all! How thankful we should be that this mighty Creator lovingly placed man here on this earth and that he is deeply interested in us!

Yes! They do not believe in Jehovah, nor do they serve Him, nor praise Him. They do not believe the Son of God, Jesus Christ, nor do they believe He died upon the stake!

This a shame and pain and sorrow that Jehovah, that Jesus died for all mankind to take away sin for all of mankind!

Satan has set his eyes upon true Christians to kill all who worship Jehovah God and to mock Jehovah, and discredit Him & His only Son.

Jehovah will show His strength and throw Satan into the everlasting burning pit.

"Praise Jah, you people!" .

Atheists don't consider ANYTHING to be a god.

Obviously the ones who commented have ZERO sense of humor. Some evfen resorted to calling names. Sad.

Give us a clue what you are talking about

Try looking up the word "atheist" in the dictionary. It might give you some idea about what atheists consider their god.

Atheists don't believe in god

It looks just like him.

A well-known engineer who worked at Google and Uber named Anthony Levandowski has founded a new AI-based religion called Way of the Future. The charter? To worship and understand “the Godhead” for the betterment of society?
