You say.......Atheists know ..................Atheists know ..............Atheists know .............

I rather would say...............atheists guess.......atheists guess.........atheists guess......

Doesn't this look better and reflect the reality?  Smile

I do mind, because opinions formed on the basis of reasons or evidence are not considered guesses.  Like many religious people, you want to level the ground of opinion in order to give your own a better face.  If you cannot accept the faults in your own opinion, that's nobody's problem but your own.  Making distorted claims about the opinions of atheists won't correct that problem.  Perhaps the poster is equally exaggerating in the other direction by claiming knowledge, but as we all learned as children, two wrongs don't make a right.

1 : to form an opinion of from little or no evidence
2 : ...
3 : to arrive at a correct conclusion about by conjecture, chance, or intuition


I find rather bizarre for you to show me the dictionary meaning of the word GUESS when the dictionary itself back me up 100%.  Indubitably

The first option is that this guess is an opinion with little or no evidence Banghead and the next meaning is all about arriving at a correct conclusion thing that Alex has never arrived at so what is your point anyway?
Where is the evidence that Alex did form his opinion on the basis for reason or evidence?
You show me these reasons and evidence and I will cover you in a sea of kudos.  Smile
