First, I doubt most of these folks have comitted the sin since blaspheming the Holy Spirit requires in the very least acknowledging his existence, which an atheist by definition can't do. If these folks had said they acknowledge his existence and then proceed to blaspheme, then we may have another story.

Second, I chuckled at their comparison of leaving the stone age when they became atheists. In fact then jumped whole heartedly back into the stone age since any of their scientific theories and logic require a belief in the one true God to comprehend anything meaningfully. They are wholly irrational. Without a universal absolute, there is no possibility of science. Any atheistic cosmology they dream up, is just that, a dream. They just feld back to primitive mythology and fairy tails by rejecting God.
Patrick, when Christ made his statement about blasphempy against the Holy Spirit he was speaking to the Jews they would not have aknowleged the Holy Ghost as a "Person" of the Godhead as such and yet still were under a condemnation of blasphemy against the same. Is my take on this wrong? Grace and Peace.
