Thinking

Except that atheism is not the belief that gods don't exist. You know this. You've been told it every time you bring it up.

Despite the emoticon, I can only conclude at this point that you are incapable of thinking.

Agnosticism is a neutral position, there have been plenty atheists here that have stated unequivocally that a God doesn't exist, so enough with the word games.

A person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods.

Hmmm... that would mean that we would be perfectly justified in behaving as though god/s did not exist, since we are incapable of discerning any such things thus they don't apply to our world; we get by perfectly happily without any gods. Plus we can hardly be held responsible for our 'blindness', can we? It's how we were made after all.

Communists killed people who resisted communism.  They were not killed because they were stupid enough to believe in some other god.

Sometimes you people can be thick as shit, you know that?

Quote:
In the Marxist–Leninist interpretation of Marxist theory developed primarily by Russian revolutionary Vladimir Lenin, religion is seen as retarding human development. Due to this, a number of Marxist–Leninist governments in the twentieth century, such as the Soviet Union after Lenin and the People's Republic of China, implemented rules introducing state atheism.

Fist of all you won't find one theist on this forum that agrees with my position, so let's not generalize.

Secondly, by saying "Communists killed people who resisted communism" you're basically accusing communists of doing the exact same thing you accuse the religious of...
