    Nah, I just hate god. Problem? 😉

    Look at this mess of a world. Why hasn’t god fixed anything? god is a deadbeat parent, not worthy of my respect, or even attention.

    F*ck god lol

      I mean, assuming the existence of a god, I don’t disagree. But if you are assuming the existence of a god then you’re not really atheist. This is the kind of misinterpretation that theists who can’t imagine not believeing in the supernatural often make about atheists; that we’re simply angry or confused rather than rejecting the paradigm altogether.

      I’m an atheist and I hate other atheists, it’s snarky comments and injecting themselves into conversations more than even Christians. It’s to the point where I would even consider some of them religious but their religion is atheism

        I have never seen this, heard this, or done this in real life.

        It’s gotten to the point where many atheists appear to fanatically believe in science, but without believing in the scientific method on which science itself builds.

    I don’t know if the greatest argument for vs the greatest catalyst for. I didn’t become an atheist because of Christians, but I sure as hell started looking for answers because of them.

    Wrong. The greatest argument against gods is the absence of evidence for their existence. Also, no argument is needed. The burden of proof lies with those making the claim.

      isn’t this more of an argument for agnosticism? atheism makes the claim that god does not exist, while agnosticism says it’s impossible to know either way.

        Wrong again. Atheism is the absence of belief in gods. If you claim that gods don’t exist, you have the burden of proof again and that is impossible to prove.

        Depends on what your definition is. As how I and from my experience, most atheists define atheism, atheism is the lack of belief in god for whatever reason. Your reasoning for this can stem from gnosis (knowledge) or agnosticism (without knowledge).

        Most atheists are agnostic atheists, who do not make any claims regarding the knowledge of existence of any particular gods.

        Gnosticism/Agnosticism is a separate concept from theism/atheism and can be applied to other concepts, not just gods.
