that means : present a case which explains why you think the best explanation for our existence requires only naturalism .
No bible bashing etc...... which would be a negative argument.
Atheism doesn't make any claims, therefore there's nothing that is being said to be 'true' as such. I simply believe in one less god than you.
This is how I see my position:
As a free thinker, I'm willing to jump right into your religion, provided you can show me logically the pathway from A to B. For Christianity, this pathway would be from what the Bible states to how it can be shown through historical means that the Biblical Son of God walked amongst us. This would prove that the claims of the Bible are within the realms of reality and not something apart i.e. a myth.
As you can see, your side is claiming something to be true. All I claim is that I don't see how it's true.
