Alright I have been researching theories talking with other Atheists and I have discovered some people who are Atheists but for the wrong reasons like... 1.Settling a score with God because they hate him for (whatever)reasons. 2.Just because. Some good reasons... 1.There is no evidence. 2.A book written by primitive people is no proof for any God/Gods. 3.Nothing can be omniscient and omnipotent. Any other reasons can be stated for I am interested in some of your reasons or reasons not to be.
Everyone has their own reason to believe or not believe in god... And i personally respect everyones beliefs and won't provoke them in any way(like that dude who burned the koran) soz i dont get the reason why this thread was made except to make people angry.
Can you prove he doesn't exist? It's a non-falsifiable statement.
*sigh* Alright, I just don't see anything that proves he's real, either. I'm an Atheist, if you don't like it, too bad.
Don't limit yourself to just the Abrahamic Faiths. Science is based on peoples' beliefs before they are proven right (Hypothesis).
True, but like your little chart in the "Heaven is for real" topic, they can't prove what is in there. No one knows if Heaven really exists or not. Atheists don't believe in the Bible or God, end of story. I'm finished with that.
Hence we can't outrightly disprove it. Just as you claim logic to be your golden standard to measure whether an argument is true or not, since you can't logically prove that God does or does not exist, how are you to believe in Atheism?
Non-Atheists (Or rather, any religion, basically): Believe in the existence of a greater power or hierarchy.
Atheists: Don't believe in the existence of a greater power or hierarchy. Simple as that.
Yes I know that. It isn't as simple as that, since Agnostics straddle the middle ground. Furthermore, religions such as Buddhism are disputable as religions since Buddhism doesn't have a Supreme Mover as a central tenet.
Rather, my question to you was that, since you cannot provide evidence that God doesn't exist, on what basis do you believe Atheism is logical and the truth? Or do you take it as a leap of faith, by which it goes contrary to your view that logic is vital.

Ah, **** it, I just don't believe in God! I don't have any basis, I just freaking don't believe! Fine, if you love it so **** much, I just don't see any sign or proof or **** like that which proves that he exists! Here, you freakin' know what, I take as a leap of faith, even though I don't have any **** faith! There! You freaking happy?
Heh, sorry for swearing so much. I just take a leap of faith, I guess. But, other religions take leaps of faith just believing in them, too. I'm not arguing any more.

Yes, since it once and for all clarifies how even though atheists claim to have logic on their side, hence reinforcing their claim, the majority of them just use leaps of faith as well which they so zealously laugh at in people who believe in religion.

I don't zealously laugh at people who believe in religion, whatever the bloody hell that means. Also, you take a leap of faith in believing in whatever you believe in, since I just forgot it, and other religions take a leap of faith just believing in God. There, now I'm seriously done.
