Why do skeptics get so emotional and aggressive in opposing biblical Christianity? Why does it bother them? Why does it matter at all to them? [Spirituality & Religion]

Think about the well-known skeptic Richard Dawkins. Why does he spend so much time writing and speaking against Someone (God) he doesn’t believe exists? Why is he so aggressive against biblical Christianity? In an ultimately purposeless and meaningless existence, why does it matter to him if people believe in the God of the Bible and the account of creation as outlined in Genesis? Why bother fighting against such people when, from his perspective, eventually no one will even know they ever existed? They claim that they care about people and argue that believing in creation is harmful to society. But something deeper is going on. They aren’t fighting for the truth, but suppressing it.
These Attacks Confirm God’s Word.

Because religion needs to be suppressed. When it has been allowed power is has created places like Iran. A question that needs to be asked is why do religious people need to make all countries into theocracies when they could simply move to a place like Iran which is perfect and Godly and see what religious power really does and why it needs to be kept in check.
Also it is hard to tell the difference between someone being religious and scrupulously which is a mental illness. A good measure is: it is a mental illness if it negatively affects the person or those around them. Which many times it does. Yet they and others are expected to suffer because religious sickness is considered taboo to touch.

What part of 'It's not about religion' don't you understand?

@GodSpeed63 Okay have it your way. Replace "religion" with "relationship with God". Don't know why you couldn't do that yourself.

If you're talking about substituting God in my own heart, forget it.
