Reply #21: That's pretty much athiesm [View All]

[Ravenseye]

so called 'Strong' athiesm takes that standpoint that there definately is no god. The majority of athiests though feel pretty much exactly how you describe. There is no evidence to support either claim. Then, because there is no evidence, an athiest doesn't generally even think about it.

Some would then say that you can't prove a negative. There is no evidence against, as Dawkins put it, a teaketttle in orbit around Mars, nor is there evidence for it. Because there is no evidence for it, it's absurd that the lack of evidence against it becomes a sticking point.

If you think there is no evidence for or against God, and don't believe in God, you're an athiest.
