Rhythm, I think I get what you're trying to say, but I'll have to get home -- I'm at work now -- so I can take the time to turn it over in my head.
Redbeard, you seem to think that I'm criticizing the strong atheist position itself. I'm not ... nor am I trying to shift evidentiary burden.
I much agree with Rob above -- regarding this or that specific deity, I'm happy to say it doesn't exist, and it's not based on faith, but contrary evidence and internal contradictions.
I am talking about how some strong atheists who reject the possibility of any god existing don't care for having that position argued. I'm not saying that all strong atheists think that way, nor am I critiquing their position.
