As you know, there are people on the Internet who pretend to be something they're not. Men who pretend they're hot young women looking for love. Christians who pretend they're atheists and atheists who pretend they're Christians. Some people just like to stir things up.
Alan seems to think you may be a Christian who's pretending to be an atheist, in order to type extremist positions and make atheists look bad.
What you're advocating is more extreme than most atheists on the Internet, but I've seen other people who come pretty close.
If you're interested in conversation you could tell us some other things about yourself, and why you've reached the conclusions you have.
All belief must be erased and forgotten. No exceptions. Atheism is not a belief. But a lack of belief. Calling people "real" atheists makes it no better than the religious. Look how many people say that certain people are not "real" Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindu's, and other beliefs.
There is no direct, observable, or testable evidence that proves the existence of a god or creator.
Despite centuries of searching, we have not found verifiable signs of divine intervention or supernatural activity that cannot be explained by natural phenomena.
Naturalistic explanations have been successful in explaining the origins and workings of the universe, life, and consciousness.
Evolution by natural selection explains the diversity of life without invoking a designer. Cosmology offers models of universe formation without requiring a creator.
God of the Gaps. Invoking God to explain the unknown has historically been replaced by natural explanations as knowledge progresses.
Some theists calling the universe "God" is unnecessary and risks mystification. We should embrace the clarity that the universe is awe-inspiring enough without inventing a divine label for it. Reason and evidence, not philosophy alone, guide us to truth.
Religion and Spiritualism must be forgotten and not allowed to flourish in place of objective reality.
