Please present positive arguments why you think atheism is true

To make that statement you have to adopt a head in the sand approach to vast swathes of knowledge.

You need to cherry pick your sources to make that work.

The knowledge you refer to is the cornerstone of our society. No one is questioning that knowledge, only some insist that this knowledge should be all that is useful and usable, when clearly it isn't.
