In that case I'm pretty much a strong atheist as well.
We may be weak or strong in our views but we all agree with one main thing. There is no god.
We may dis-agree with some views and agree on many others but it's our main common agreement, that being that god does not exist which is the one main thing that we all can agree on.
I'm certain that there's no god, Some other atheists wouldn't be so strong with that conclusion. Also the meaning of the word certain and knowing is something that shouldn't be mixed up. There's a differance between those two words.
Which I also want FutureAndAHope to confirm what he said. He claimed to "Know" there is a god and so after making such a huge claim, I now need evidence to take him seriously.
Shouldn't mention "Know" if you have nothing to show or support your claims.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
