North Korea 'executes Christians'

[Edwardo Piet]

Atheism is the absence of a belief in God

With no evidence whatsoever that this is true.

Don't add the "a" in there either, with the "a" it's agnosticism, an undecided, neutral position. Without the "a" it's atheism, a position without any basis in fact.

You want evidence?

Theists are those who believe in a personal God or gods.

Deists are those who believe in a non-personal God or gods.

Atheists don't believe in God(s) at all.

It's the definitions, this is semantics here, labels. What do you mean by evidence in this context? We're talking labels here.

How do you define it then??

I know there's bound to be proof that atheists don't believe in God.

No evidence that God doesn't exist though, which makes atheism an irrational leap of faith.

You're playing the reverse burden of proof there matey.

I have no evidence for God, so I need evidence to believe he exists, as with the FSM.

I also have no evidence that God positively doesn't exist, indeed. But neither do I that the FSM doesn't...

Do you? Do you have evidence that the FSM, doesn't exist? Can you prove a negative, and prove that the 'negative proof' fallacy doesn't apply to the FSM for some bizarre reason? Can you break logic there?

No?? Well, I guess by your logic you are making an irrational leap of faith for not believing in the Flying Spaghetti Monster then, because there's 'no evidence that it doesn't exist'.

Or, no? You don't think the logic applies? Do you believe God has evidence then, unlike the FSM, so the burden of proof is on us atheists? If so...what evidence does God have?
