You are entitled to take today off from trying to show atheism is somehow wrong, Delicate. Enjoy the day! 
Maybe even talk to us about another subject!
No more debating for me today, I'm gonna enjoy the day. I got a cool jigsaw caddy thing from my wife

I may not be the Devil, but I bet I could make a sinner out of her.
Damn, someone beat me to it.

Athena is a favorite of mine, too. Goddess of Wisdom.
However, you're forgetting that she's also the goddess of warfare:
"Athena (/əˈθiːnə/; Attic Greek: Ἀθηνᾶ, Athēnā, or Ἀθηναία, Athēnaia; Epic: Ἀθηναίη, Athēnaiē; Doric: Ἀθάνα, Athānā) or Athene (/əˈθiːniː/; Ionic: Ἀθήνη, Athēnē), often given the epithet Pallas (/ˈpæləs/; Παλλὰς), is the goddess of wisdom, courage, inspiration, civilization, law and justice, mathematics, strength, war strategy, the arts, crafts, and skill in ancient Greek religion and mythology. Minerva is the Roman goddess identified with Athena. Athena is known for her calm temperament, as she moves slowly to anger. She is noted to have only fought for just reasons, and would not fight without a purpose."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athena
Warfare demands wisdom. And wisdom needs defending.

Circular reasoning. You are assuming what you need to demonstrate.
By the way: principles are abstractions. If you're trying to use that an as escape clause, you're essentially arguing that your god is a mental figment. And while you're pondering that, would you mind actually defining "Spirit"? Because that shit looks pretty messy once you step outside the world of the pew and baptismal.
But if you want physical evidence of a universal principle, I invite you to measure a true right angle, mark off three inches on one side of it, four on the other, and then measure the hypotenuse. Right there, you will see the physical representation of an abstract principle. When you can do that with your deity, do let us know. Until then, color me unimpressed.

The fact that you think in terms of "atheist overlords" speaks volumes about you.
You are committing the cardinal sin of warfare. You don't understand your enemy.
Dumbfuck.

The major problem with you has always been your statement of providing without the exact delivery.
Therefore, fuck you. You have to ask.
Well not you. You're perpetually unqualified for grown up conversation.
But others. Perhaps your mommy or daddy can ask for you.

Er, Dipshit. That's no way to ask anyone for anything.
I'll get back to you once I hear an apology.

I wonder if anyone has ever prayed for some evidence? Surely that would be quicker than all this.
If so, shit out of luck it seems.

Ooh, Delicate's Achilles' heel has been found! Everybody swear at Delicate, and it will slither back into the foul hole it came from and we won't have to deal with its evil black heart ever again!
