Who throws the dice for you?

I think one issue you raise, smax, that is worth remembering is what 'most' atheists actually believe, or rather, don't. As an atheist I haven't ruled out the possibility of there being some sort of higher being, merely every single claim currently made up until this point by people proclaiming to be able to prove that there is a god.

There's a big difference, one which almost always seems to over the head of some theists.

What is a god anyway? I've been asking that of everyone who claims their particular version of whatever god it is they worship is real, and never received an answer I could relate to or that met my standards. Maybe my standards are too high?
