If I understand you, any evidence that an atheist poses now would likely be dismissed as readily. I also think pseudo Christians would find the pseudo prefix actually belongs to you. A true Christian is a fabrication generated as a label...a label each fabricator wears proudly.
If you want a smoking gun, sorry to disappoint. If you want evidence to weigh, I suggest you discard the bias notion that atheists claims are automatically biased.
I think you somewhat misunderstood my stance. To word it more clearly, if anyone just throws their opinion at me and expects me to take it as hard fact, I'm not inclined to. Give me solid facts, or take facts and make clear deductions, and that's something I can work with. I won't credit it any differently. whether it comes from a theist, deist, agnostic, or atheist. In fact, I find the theists to be the least reasonable, if you want to rate them in groups.

Quote:As per your introdruction thread I'd still like to know, why you personally believe that there HAD to be a supernatural creator? I believed it for years myself during my post religious deist times, but I'd be honestly interested in your answer.
I've found enough historical evidence to convince me the Bible is both intact and accurate to its original text, which in turn caused me to consider giving it an honest chance, and when I put it into practice I found it to be true. It's a lot more practical than you probably realize (no offense with the statement, but I clarify that because most theists who preach it consider it relative in its absolutes, and absolute in its relatives, or whatever fits their needs at the time).
Seeing something work is convincing to me, especially when it goes beyond placebo effects and influences my environment consistently. By scientific procedure, it has been proven right thus far.
Quote:Evidence that the christian god doesn't exist perhaps? You can't prove a negative.
If that's the best argument, then why be gun-ho about Atheism either? Along that line of thinking, wouldn't it be equally incorrect? Why not just be Agnostic?
