Because they were generally uneducated and superstitious, and they had no real information as to what the cause of their suffering actually was.
They feel that God has abandoned them. They think he isn't real because they think, "If he was real, why would he let problems happen to us?".
People may reject belief in God if they hear or see of evil and suffering because they are told he is omnipotent, omnibenevolent and onmiscience. So if they are told he is all of these then why cant he stop the evil and suffering?

When people expect from God to fit in their measures, and of course He does not, they fail in believing. Many say: if there were God, and He is good, there would not be suffering.... All of those can be explained, but that is not the question here.
IS GOD EVEN REAL?????
God is not real. The concept of God was invented by people.
God loves everyone no matter what they do. People who claim that God hates them are simply being disciplined for their sins (just as a child needs to be disciplined) and will not admit to themselves that they are responsible for the own suffering. If you wanted a personal opinion: He is certainly nice to me! :)

I am sure you are a good person and you might be asking yourself: Why do good people suffer? One thing you can be sure is that your suffering is not God's doing, like people usually think. The Bible says in James 1:13 "let no one say: 'I am being tried by God.'" Why? Because "with evil things God cannot be tried, nor does he himself try anyone." Instead it says who is truly responsible for our suffering. 1 John 5:19 says "The whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one (the Devil)." The Bible has helped me to understand the real reason why we suffer and why does God allow suffering. But it doesn't stop there, it has given me real hope because the Bible teaches that God will soon end suffering. "For this purpose the Son of God [Jesus] was made manifest," declares the Bible, "to break up the works of the Devil." (1 John 3:8) I really hope you're situation gets better. You can find hope in the Bible as I did.
