Defining "Atheism"

[marco_73]

Hi

So, how do we define atheism? Is it a belief that there is no god? a lack of belief in a god?

My current position is this:
- I lack believe in God
- I belief that there is no God.
- I know I lack belief in God
- I do not know that there is no God

For your initial question about the "burdon of proof" it means this:
- I am willing to prove that what I think I know: that I lack belief
- As I do not claim to have knowledge that there is no god, I already accepted that I do not have evidence for this position. (It is solely based upon the lack of belief)
