Why are atheist...atheist?

[krazedkat]

Far as i know, atheist choose to believe that God does not exist.

You're entire post already falls apart in the first sentence. Atheism is the lack of belief in any deity.

My question is why?

I lack said belief due to the fact that there is no evidence, whatsoever, that has been presented that leads me to the assumption that there is a deity. Further still, no peer review journal has ever published anything even hinting at the existence of a deity.

I, myself, am spiritual and am not really affiliated with any religion. I choose to believe God exist because I think the laws of physics just randomly or coincidently happenening the way they did out of the infinite other possible options is rediculously unlikely.

What leads you to this absurd conclusion? It's completely likely.

So unlikely that i choose to believe in some intelligent design instead. As far as what God is like don't know. Is he an individual, a collective, or more like a computer with no real consciousness as we might call it? I couldn't answer with as much conviction as believing in God, but I do have my beliefs about his nature.

Then you don't believe in god, simple as that. To believe in something you must have a working definition of what the hell it is you believe in!

But to just assert that God doesn't exist without any real supporting evidence is just as ignorant as religious people saying he does exist and describing what he's like.

Again, wrong definition...

To me, it sounds like Atheist choose not to believe in God simply because it makes them feel more sure of reality, same reason religious people choose to believe.

I choose to not believe because nothing supports it. And yes, it does make me more sure of reality, seeing as I, the non-blind one, can actually see it.

Why not simply admit one does not know instead taking a stance of certainty? That, to me, is inherently ignorant.

This whole post is using the wrong definition.

P.S
I asked this same question on yahoo answers and for some reason offended alot of people. I thought atheist weren't not as prone to respond like religious people when someone questions there beliefs. I'm just curious, not looking to convert anyone or anything like that.

Maybe they were offended at how atrocious your grammar and spelling were, rather than simply being offended by the proposed question. You must understand that atheism is a lack of belief, that'd probably be why people got so pissed at you, you didn't even know what you were arguing against.
