(January 23, 2013 at 1:59 am)Justcurious Wrote: Atheists: I have three questions.
1. Is there an organized group of atheists that has a global presence?
2. For what reason do you go about and try to disprove the beliefs of the theists?
3. Isn't the belief/knowledge that there is without a doubt no God/gods also faith based? ( I don't just mean the Christian God, but the existence of higher beings in general, and please don't bring up the stupid flying spaghetti monster argument).

1) There are several atheist groups, but I don't think any of them have any unifying presence or beliefs.

2) Generally, I don't. My rule is, if theists don't preach their religion to me, I won't mock their beliefs to them. So, unless and until they preach to me, I just let them believe anything they want.

3) Yes, if I were a 7 on the Dawkins Scale, there would be some amount of belief on that. But I'm not. I'm honestly open minded about the idea of a God and if good evidence is provided, I'll believe it. So far, none has been provided.
