I find it interesting that you think i thought all atheists believe what I wrote in my first post. I didn't and still don't, I was looking to bring out those that did. Only one has admitted it, which is unsurprising. Like I've said before, I've had these discussions before and most end at the pointds made in my first post. I'm still waiting to find an explanation of why so many atheists accept Hawking's perspective when is conjecture, it seems logic falls out the window when it suits their purposes. So similar to religion, all that happens is that scientists become a replacement for ministers.
I've tried to lighten the tone as I find it very boring to be hostile the whole time, and all that happens is it becomes a diversion from the point I'm making. To me the constant hostility just shows the emotion people have towards the subject, odd given it's meant to be a logically formed view.
As a rule, I don't like what atheists stand for, I can see no point in it. When I was an atheist, I was not actively one. If someone asked me, I just didn't believe. Now I've thought about it, I'm devoutly agnostic. I accept that everyone is different and believe different things, I just intensely dislike the supposed intellectual high-ground many atheists attempt to give themselves. It just reeks of self-righteousness, again like some religious groups.
Some people believe, I don't care, they're welcome to as long as they don't impinge on me. But why form a group to disbelieve in something, it makes no sense to me at all. For any one reading this and about to cite 9/11, paedophilia, religious corruption please don't bother, it doesn't convince me of anything. Of course, if you feel the need to cathartically purge why you hate religion so much, go ahead.
Gringo - case and point. I don't know why they do it for acceptance amongst their peers, or are trying to annoy me.
