lol, like I said, I'm not looking to fight. I'm just curious. Those are my current beliefs and I'm curious about atheist's beliefs. Once again, not trying to prove I'm right or start a debate or anything. Beliefs aren't really that big a deal to me, at least not right now.
Also, I've asked the question elsewhere but didn't get any informative answers at all. They very much responded ignorantly as if they were offended or just assumed I was speaking from the common religious point of view when i wasn't. Since yahoo answers isn't really good place for you to say "no, you completely misunderstood what I've said" or " you didn't even read what I wrote" I decided to ask the question on forum instead. In fact, the only plausible answer I got from one person was that he chooses the stance of atheist because he chooses not to call anything he doesn't understand God, which is really admitting you simply do not know; which is what I've suggested was the wiser path. However, I know that not all atheist are like this though, which is why is re-ask the question here.
