Atheism

[Amarok]

Theist- here 's a bunch of claims and stuff i assert is evidence 

Atheist - Sorry i'm not convinced as this is not evidence 

Theist -That's an assertion you need to back up 

Atheist -No it's not it's me not being convinced as your provided no evidence of your claims 

Atheism is content less an absence of something not based on any assertions but ONLY on the failure of theism to back it's  assertions . No matter what twisted logic theists try and employ to try into a position for their apologetics agenda .

That is NOT what the meme said. It specifically said 'reject'. So for your example to be analogous, you would say I 'reject' the proposition that the man is guilty (meme: reject what you have failed to prove). If you did, the meaning would be that he is innocent--an assertion. But your analogy actually has another problem: even concluding that the evidence is insufficient is itself an assertion that the evidence is insufficient. 

Which brings us to the broader problem: I think the only way to rescue the idea that atheism make no assertions is there can be zero evidence. But there is some presented, so you are stuck passing judgement on that evidence.

I can reject the claim he's guilty without asserting he's innocent

Follow that through. Why don't you accept the evidence?

Because it's not evidence it's only asserted by the theist as such .
