That's because atheism logically entails a very specific worldview: a world without the influence of god(s). By default that means that atheists must believe that every known phenomena has a non-divine cause. I'm open to hear of a middle ground that someone actually believes and promotes. If I'm wrong then, I would like to here something any AF member atheist believes does not have a natural cause.

Okay, I guess continued shit throwing is what you want.

Atheism = No god = non-divine. No shit. A serious master of the obvious moment, particularly since this is the point that has been made repeatedly in this thread. My argument was that this does not constitute a 'world view' precisely because atheism says fuckall about abiogenesis or anything else for that matter.

Seriously, what is the fucking point of all this world view bullshit if all it means is that atheists don't attribute events in the universe to a god? Atheism is not a world view, it is a position on a single proposed aspect of reality; that's it. It does not inform my opinion on anything else.
