Isn't it wonderful that you've come to this place and been shown that what you thought was wrong? Now you have a more accurate picture of what atheism is or entails...a more accurate view of the world and the people around you. Congratulations.
-Atheists- don't believe in gods. It's gods that atheists think are "bullshit". Some still check their horoscopes....plenty believe in ESP, bigfoot...aliens, the healing power of crystals; and that my morning deuce causes the sun to rise. No need to thank me...yet another service I provide. (okay, maybe there's only one atheist who believes that last one...but still).
I'll ask again...since you've decided to persist in making these claims.....how did you arrive at your conclusions? How is it that you know the rules of the magical world (or even that it has rules)...how do you know that it takes a god to have an afterlife, or to have magic? How do you know that a "wishing world" would yield chaos?
