As an atheist I do not claim that there is no god. I just lack belief in such a thing.
Atheism in it's most basic sense, is the lack of belief in god. Gnostic Atheists, assert that god does not exist. Agnostic atheists only lack belief in god's existence.
As usual, another silly nikabuka attacking what he does not know or understand.
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.
