That's fine, but then you make the category error of insisting that the basic atheist position is the belief that gods do not exist, despite being corrected multiple times by people who somehow think they know more about what they do and do not believe than you do. See, if the only way you can get your arguments to work is by having to misrepresent your opponents' position, it might not be their position that's the weak one.

Errors in beliefs.  Whose?  Ours?  I'm sure there are Muslims out there that would be happy to point out errors in YOUR beliefs.  In fact, with over 3/4 of the planet not Xtian, there are around 5 billion people alive today who might point out errors in your beliefs, if they actually wanted to be as rude and offensive as you are.  

My beliefs, or lack of them, my stance on religion is none of your business.  How dare you come into OUR HOUSE and try to point out errors in our beliefs?  If you have the capability to do so at all, imagine, for just one moment, someone walking into your kitchen and belittling you, calling you stupid and incompetent and deluded, because of the things you believe.      You are THAT person.     I pity you.
