Once you start making claims for or against an idea then you have stopped being agnostic (that strangely forgotten word) and have started to advocate a position. It's a dishonest bait-and-switch tactic to avoid the burden of proof.(April 10, 2014 at 4:34 pm)Chas Wrote: Other - Non-belief in gods.
You have been told repeatedly by many atheists that atheism is the lack of belief. You just can't wrap your head around that?
I totally understand your frustration chas.
I made the statement in another thread that atheists here make sure everyone understands that atheism is a lack of belief, and they called me a liar and demanded I make a poll.
