Indeed.
I've been trying to think of a way to argue for theism, I can't really build a successful argument for it. Most are based on ignorance and fallacies. Also most contradict each other.
As Rayaan said, it's easier to argue as an atheist. We have nothing to prove, nothing to assert, nothing to defend. I quite simply lack belief.
To try and argue successfully for something that most likely don't even exist is really fucking tricky!

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
