How atheist are you?
#21
RE: How atheist are you?
I really am not a fan of this scale. Not only because it tries to quantify something that is constantly fluid and un-pin-down-able, but because it also further muddies the waters in terms of what the 'atheist' label means.

I can understand Dawkins wanting a useful abbreviation or indicator of someone's confidence of belief, but this is just a bit too unwieldy for my tastes.

I am 100% certain that I do not believe a god exists, but I do not claim to be certain that no god in fact exists. No idea where I'd be on a number scale.
In every country and every age, the priest had been hostile to Liberty.
