Atheism isn't a "total rejection of spiritual experience" (though 'spiritual' is such a vague word it may as well be meaningless), it's literally just not having a belief in God, that's it. There are no claims. One could technically argue what you've posited, but that person would be horribly wrong.
Trust in faithless to not see the forest for the trees.
Fine then, fuckit. It is an extraordinary claim for a human to not have a degree of belief in a deity of some description.
Whatever the fuck way you want to phrase it fuckface. Post wasn't even aimed at your cunflaps.
It was simply a hypothetical intellectually stimulating ponder with the good honourable gentleman Stimbo.
