I was merely pointing out that if atheists want to use that absurd canard, “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence” they should be careful because atheism by definition is the extraordinary claim since a majority of people believe in the supernatural.
Let me explain a few basic points of logic to you Stat Wal
1. Skepticism isn't a claim (extraordinary or otherwise)
2. Atheism is a lack of belief in any god or gods, not a claim.
3. Appeal to popularity is a fallacy, not a proof.
