Please, do inform me about these things I believe. I'd simply love for you to educate us atheists about the contents of our own minds. Because we simply have no way of knowing ourselves, the things you think we believe must be true, because your vast telepathic skills have allowed you to reach into our minds and pluck the things we think about right out of our heads.
Okay, but seriously: stop trying to tell us about the things we believe. We're quite capable of informing you ourselves. This shit drives me nuts.

Yeah, I believe that. And my belief is justified because I'm in my own head and I can say, with surety, that I am an atheist. It's demonstrable.
Where are you going with this?
Atheism born in order to counter the religions so if you want to knock down religious beliefs you must have other types of beliefs in your mind.
It does not make sense to say that religions must first prove their beliefs when you yourself can not prove anything of your beliefs.
It does not matter if your enemy is wrong.
If you want to win the war you must go and fight with some weapons.
As far as i can see you have no weapons to fight with.
So far physical science can prove religious dogmas wrong but as far as God existence or not nothing at all.
But i predict an eternal struggle between you two.
As soon as religions see their dogmas collapse they will invent a new dogmas (false truth) and as soon as they do that you will be at their throat try to knock down the new dogma.
At the end none of you will get anywhere because both of you miss the real point which is to reach human emancipation.
