Technically holes are just an absence, the lack of something, and yet it is still possible to quantify and describe holes by their size, location, pattern, etc. While one can adhere to the trivial notion that atheism is a lack and really nothing at all...that posture, seems a bit limiting for intellectual discourse. Atheism does have a broad range of meanings but that does not mean it is, as a category, devoid of meaning.
No. Theism is "dismissed" and if I say I dismiss it, that's what I do. You do not read minds, and cannot tell me what I think.
I said nothing about holes. Nice try at derailing this with all that crap. Fail.
I'm an Igtheist. There is nothing in Igtheism that relates to anything in theism, and there is nothing in atheism that relates to ANYTHING in theism, and you have connected nothing.

According to your logic, no one can deny anything they they deny as valid and real.
Do you still believe in the "ether" ?
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell ![Popcorn Popcorn](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/popcorn.gif)
