You admit you are ignorant of things huh? It's not often I find intellectually honest theists, religious people to admit that they may be wrong and that they don't know for sure. Something I don't see very often. I can admit that I could be wrong, I have in fact admitted that often and I've admitted I don't know everything...I mean who does right?
Ok, you admit that you don't know absolutely that there is a god, good. I don't claim to know that there isn't a god. We're on the same page now right? We can put the whole 'certainty/knowledge' thing to rest now.
Also....I'm putting words in 'your' mouth? You've been doing that to me and others right here in this thread! Stating that I claim there is no god when I've never done so. Asserting that I believe with some kind of certainty that there is no such thing. 'You' have put words in my mouth sir.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
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.
