I'm an agnostic atheist. I believe in the almost certain fiction of god. That means that while I recognize that god may exist, the probability is so low that his non-existence is a virtual certainty. And we're all a little crazy.
If your position and my position were equally opposed, you'd be right. They are not. You obviously believe in the existence of god. I'd have to equally but oppositely believe that there is no god for the two ideas to be equally opposed. When I say, "Prove god exists", I am asking you to defend your point. When you ask me to prove god doesn't exist, you're asking me to defend a point that is not my own. Most atheists are like me, btw, where they simply think that god is basically fiction. Let me put it in different terms. I think that pokemon are fictitious (and annoying), but if I were to one day come upon a pokemon I could understand that it's possible for this creature to exist. I have no evidence to suggest that pokemon are real now, so I think it's safe to say while I recognize that pokemon may exist, the probability is so low that his non-existence is a virtual certainty.
Defendant, but that's really not important. The fact is that you absolutely believe in the existence of god. I think that's irrational. I've shown, by lack of any evidence, that god almost certainly isn't real, so you're position isn't reasonable.
But the evidence to support the existence of Zeus is the same as the evidence to support god. Why favor one over the other? Why is god more likely than Zeus?
You've met god, then? You've come across some evidence to tell you god is real? I'd love for you to share reasonable evidence that can lead to the natural assertion that the existence of god is a certainty, thus justifying your faith, and changing your faith to science.
I sincerely hope you weren't thinking of listing things like 'a child's laughter' or 'someone reading the Bible and crying'.
Have you ever died? No? Then you're not qualified to tell me my experience was wrong.
Both are illogical. Thank god (pun intended) that I fall into neither of those camps. You, on the other hand, do. Even if I was someone who absolutely believed that god doesn't exist, that wouldn't make your position any more logical. We'd simply both be wrong. Someone else being wrong doesn't make you right.
Let me make this clear: atheism consists of two parties: agnostic atheists, who like myself recognize that god may exist, the probability is so low that his non-existence is a virtual certainty (which are about 98-99% of atheists)... and pure atheists, people who believe absolutely that god doesn't exist (these are the 1-2% that are generally ignored). I don't speak on behalf of pure atheists. I speak on behalf of agnostic atheists.
If your faith had nothing to do with spiting me, then why did you suddenly assert that every time I make an argument your faith grows? That's clearly a weak attempt at taunting, and you're hardly the first person to try and use that to try and make me angry. It's never actually gotten me angry, though it usually ends the conversation because when others make that statement, they have lost all my respect and they're not worth my time. There are plenty of people out there who are more than willing to actually listen to me, and who I am willing to listen to.
YOU made the claim, so I have to look it up? I'm sure your professors love reading your citations.
I know plenty of Mexicans, Arabs, Asians, and yes even African-Americans who are agnostic atheists. I'm having lunch with one today as we go over performance standards for March today at work, in fact.
You were trying to do a hit an run, and I called you on it. You suddenly dropped the race card, then you said, "Oh, but don't worry about it".
I'm an agnostic atheist. I hope that's crystal clear now.
