RE: Positive claims and atheists

I get so fucking sick of this argument/debate. I do not believe that gods exist, because I have never encountered a reason to. Add to that the few places that science has left gods to hide in, and I can easily proclaim that I believe that gods do not exist.

I said "believe" and that carries no burden of proof. If I claimed to know that no gods exist, I could be expected to have some convincing evidence, but all I said is that I "believe" they do not.

Same goes for theists. You can believe whatever you choose and not be required to prove it, but don't go thinking I have to believe it too. Try to tell me that your god does, indeed, exist... and you got some provin' to do.
