Many believers wished that everyone believed in the same beliefs that they believe are facts. Sadly, a belief in itself is not a fact, or evidence of any fact outside of the cognition responsible for the belief itself. Atheists don't believe in a god because there is no evidence for a god.
The believer will claim "the world looks perfectly made for human life, how could that be an accident?". This is one of the most ridiculous arguments. It is like wondering why humans aren't born on the surface of the sun. Obviously humans live in an environment that can support their life, if they didn't, they wouldn't be alive at all. It is like a puddle of water wondering why the hole in the ground is perfectly shaped for it.
Atheists are not mad at God, or are afraid of eternal punishment. Any atheist that is afraid of God isn't really an atheist (obviously). While it seems obvious that an atheist doesn't believe in God, many believers claim that they secretly do (believers apparently have the ability to read the minds of both God and atheists).
In short, atheists don't believe in God because there is no valid reason to believe in such a thing. Atheists believe in things that don't require blind-faith and extreme gullibility. This is why atheists don't believe in God.
I will admit, it is a good strategy on the part of the believer to debate atheism in this way. This causes a distraction in the debate, it forces the atheist to defend himself/herself, momentary halting his/her offense. A believer deep-down knows the impossibility of defeating an atheist in a debate (they literally need to prove the existence of God). Their only hope is to use circular arguments until the atheist becomes bored and moves on.
I know this was a little ranty, but it is irritating that these debating methods are still used to argue atheism.
