Our Rules page explains it quite clearly:
Quote:The Purpose of Atheist Forums
The forums were created for the purpose of providing friendly discussion and debate between atheists and other like-minded individuals, as well as theists.
And atheism isn't the belief in no no gods; it's the withholding of belief until claims about gods are demonstrated to be true. Atheists can believe in all sorts of things, but by definition gods are not among them.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
