Wrong, wrong, wrong. I think we need a new word for people who believe the definition of atheism is something other than atheism, as seems to be a substantial proportion of the population.
You can claim to me that the next person to walk through a doorway will be a man. If you give me no evidence to support it, the logical thing to do is reject your claim. I do not believe there is enough evidence to make the claim that the next person through the door will be a man. I am not, however, saying that the next person through the door won't be a man.
I realise this is a subtle distinction, but people need to get their head around this before trying to debate atheists.
