The word bible means books (from Koine Greek τὰ βιβλία). The Bible is a wild compilation of old books, and because of that, there are a lot contradictions, it is not a coherent book (book of books).
Most Christians say that use the Bible as a moral guide, but they didn't read it all that is there.
Most modern christian are cherry picking lines from the Bible, meanwhile atheists use the whole Bible in order to show the doubtful material that is there, specially in the old testament.

We do not recommend the Bible, we think is not recommended as a moral book (not a holy book). We have a modern morality! Also, our morality can change over time.
We don't have a holy book, we're creating our own coherent guidelines and systematic attributes. It is an ongoing process, we are not stuck in the past.

Most Christians believe that people are born with the original sin (naturally inclined to evil).
Also, they think that if you do something wrong to someone, you did as well to God itself, they call it sin.
Christians believe and fear to go to hell as punishment for their sins.
It's not surprise to see Christians with a guilty mentality, they think that they are not good enough (sinners), sometimes even, they punish themselves (in extreme cases, flagellation).

We are free of guilt (guilty-less), even if we did something wrong, because we have high standards of morality, we try to fix what we can. In the twisted moral game of Earth's society, it is often impossible to please everybody (controversial action).
We have a positive mind (positivity), free of fear (fearless); we hope for a better future.

Soteriology is the study of religious doctrines of salvation.
Christians expect to be saved, and they like it because they don't have to do too much work, someone does part or all the work.
They become dependent of an external being (Jesus, Mary, Angels, Saints, God,...) and they don't know how to save themselves (like babies that need parents).

We try to save ourselves without external help, trying to be independent, free of dependencies, self-sufficient and sovereign beings. Therefore, we can take responsibility for all our actions.
We don't take external help without a good reason.

In the past, some christian groups were pretty very efficient spreading their ideology (proselytism), because they were using wars, using force, coercing, Inquisition,...
Currently, in first world countries, Christians are losing adepts because the average folk believe that any traditional religion is obsolete.
Nowadays, also, they use internet, for example:  >>/697/

At the moment, we are not very efficient spreading our ideas to the average human, mainly because the average human is not interested in our ideas.
We use moral proselytism, without spamming, without coercing,...
We don't expect to be famous among humans.
