Hmm, good call on hearing "Christians say Atheists say."

However...

I have had discussions with some of my atheist friends and they've articulated this position...BUT...I grant that they are not the best representation of atheism.

Sort of like when people say all religions teach essentially the same thing. That statement just shows that they haven't actually studied very much into the different religions. (contrast Buddism an Islam)

I would grant that anyone that makes that statement (universe from chance) is equally uninformed in regards to the beliefs of the majority of atheists.

I've tried searching for any legit articles where an atheist would profess this statement and have found none (that appear credible).

Thanks for the fact checking fellas (and any ladies). Like I said in my intro post, it's good to converse with people who don't believe the same.

I appreciate it
-Jeff
