Systematically Dismantling Atheism

[Esquilax]

I feel like I've wasted half an hour of typing...

You did. IDscience is a creationist, which means he is, and has been for quite a while, immune to facts. You'll never get him to backtrack on any point because it seems that the certainty with which you issue a proposition means more to him than the factual accuracy of that proposition. That's why we have him still insisting that atheists believe a certain thing, despite the numerous atheists that have told him flat out that no, in fact they don't.

In the common parlance, continuing to do this would be called lying, but for a creationist it pretty much composes the entirety of their communications.

For example:

You either believe there is an invisible pink unicorn in the box with schrodinger's cat or you don't believe it. If you don't believe there is a invisible pink unicorn in the box, you must believe (not know) there is not a invisible pink unicorn in the box with the cat

Or you could act like an adult and not feel the need to take any position on what's in the box until the box is opened and you have more information. Why are you so desperate for everyone to have declarative positions about everything? Is the idea that you might be seen not to know absolutely everything scare you that much? Are you uncomfortable that other people aren't similarly burdened by this fear of having their ego bruised?

Not forming an opinion before you can form an informed one is not a weakness, IDscience.
