how do you know there is no god or after life
Gnosic Atheism can be a faith (how can you possibly know there's no god)
Agnostic Atheism is not faith (Bold is not a hair color)
Exactly my point Bungy...THAT'S what I mean.
That's what I mean, how there are occasions when Atheism can be a 'faith', I don't mean faith as in it is religious in the sense of 'belief in God', but faith as in religious in the sense that its a faith because it atleast CAN have a significant proportion of its disbelief in God, not based on evidence, but simply based on false-intuiton, mild-ignorance, or possibly even suppressed or repressed hatred of God - in some occasions.
Hope that made sense, hope I got that right.
