Belief in a god won't make it true. Just as belief in Santa won't make it true.
Back to the point... you disbelieve what you reason to be true.

You freely admit to not wanting to know. GTFO claiming that you understand anything about it.I do understand. Thing is, I've always been an atheist, the more I learnt about religion, the stronger my stance against it became. There is nothing you could teach me that would make any difference. I already know what I need to know.
If you wanted to progress beyond your naive misunderstanding don't you think that might be commendable?

I do not start with the assumption that it exists, it doesn't work that way. I need reason and evidence, if there be neither, then it will be dismissed.
Are you sure you know what you're talking about?
