I should?
That's not in the job description... I looked it up.

For the millionth time... atheists don't make claims.... ok, some may make a few, but not in general.
For the most part, an atheist is a person who does not see enough reason to accept the claim that a god exists.
If and when someone presents enough reason to accept that, the atheist becomes a theist... In my personal case, I foresee very little chance of that happening in my lifetime. But hey... who knows?...

There is a minority of atheists who actually claim that god does not exist. They're usually adamant concerning a specific god claim or a few of them. At some point, they must extrapolate to all god claims. Perhaps they're right. It's intuitively very likely that they are. But who knows?...

As for you... keep shining the light, but try not to be a cunt about it... and try not to keep misrepresenting the people who actually identify themselves as atheists.

You just admitted your job description is not to get butthurt when I point out atheists are stupid. That's all I wanted to hear.

Atheists are not rational, they don't care about reasons. So enough about the nonsense that atheists "don't see enough reason." Does this idiotic post reflect reason to you?
