It is false, my default position has always been athiest and nothing I've seen has swayed me.

It seems that many atheists are atheists not because of evidence against theism but because of a lack of evidence for theism. Is this true?
In my case its both, there is no reason to believe in any god, but the abrahamic gods have a plethora of reasons NOT to believe them. I mean Noahs ark come on!!
Quote:If so, isn't there a little faith involved that there really isn't any evidence for theism that may have been overlooked or yet to be discovered?
Discover it then we'll talk.
However anything you find convincing may not be so to me. Remember your god is an extradinary claim and so would require extradinary proof.
