And how would you measure belief?

it's always funny when you recite statistics.

It wasn't until Copernicus and Galileo that this theory was challenged. Since the majority believed in an earth-centered theory, it was up to the minority, those like Galileo who supported a sun-centered theory, to prove their extraordinary claim. People weren't just going to take their word for it. They had to prove it!

Gee willikers! They had to prove it! That sure puts holes in my Atheism (with a capital "A").

It surely couldn't have been that the geocentric model had observations that served as evidence (although faulty), coupled with older myths of a flat earth that hadn't died out from the general pre-Enlightenment populace?


...Nah

It is the atheist who is making the extraordinary claim, as they are in the minority. The burden of proof is on atheists. It is up to them to prove that what the majority of society believes is false.

1. You don't know what the word "tenet" means if you're using it with the world "atheist" beforehand.
2. You have no clue what burden of proof is, how it works, and what it hopes to accomplish.
3. Read a list of logical fallacies and analyze your arguments. I've told you this before. Your arguments are very poorly constructed and you fail to realize the folly of your ways. Stop it.
