As you well know, it's not the idea of 'belief' that rational atheists balk at, it's the idea of 'irrational beliefs'. Everyone has beliefs and only the ignorant/irrational claim otherwise; the question is 'do you hold your beliefs for a good reason'. You know it's all about standards of evidence.What spurious claim am I making lol?
A spurious claim would include belief in no God. How do you support that belief? Please defend your position? ... are the questions that you invite declaring that position.
Atheists baulk at what they consider to be irrational beliefs, and without reason. Standards of evidence being the illogical get out clause commonly employed
