There are quite a few theists who will tell us that they don't believe in atheism. It seems kind of silly, but they'll insist there's really no such thing. It seems important to them.
Atheists certainly believe in atheism. And gravity. And Christains. And SC decisions... Even if they disagree with them, they believe they exist.
There's ether belief that God does/doesn't exist or certainty.
Um, no. Wrong.
Are atheists certain God doesn't exist? Or do they believe God doesn't exist?
False dichotomy. And not the point i was trying to make.
Someone made a point about atheism and you responded by commenting about atheists. And badly.
It's more like someone made a comment about Christain decoration.
And you said that you don't have to have stained glass windows to be Christain.
And the person you were talking with made a comment about Christain drivers thinking they don't need to be able to see through their windshields because they believe God is their copilot.
ATHEISM is describes a position on the existence of gods. It says the designated individual does not have a belief in any deities.
They can believe in the flag, or ghosts, Sasquatch, Picard vs. Kirk, the Oxford comma.
They may believe there are no gods, they may be uncertain there are any gods, or they may not give a shit whether or not there are gods. As long as they lack a theistic belief, they're atheists. That's all that atheism requires or implies.
If it's certainty then I would like them to justify their position with evidence. TIA
Well, if you're going to hold people accountable for defending positions they may not actually hold, then FOIA.
