If it is not available or observable, then it is not evidence! If it is unobtainable, then that is your problem. Atheism is not a belief in the same sense that -1 is not a whole number. You can argue all you want that it is, but by the very definition of it, it is not.
"Sisters, you know only the north; I have traveled in the south lands. There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."
