The right way to say is:
Atheist: there is no God

Harris I assume you don't believe in fairies.
Now prove there are no such things as fairies.
Now this is unfair isn't it, the one putting the "there are faries" argument is the one who supplies the evidence then the unbeliever gets to evaluate it.
How do we provide the evidence for no god?
Well there is no evidence FOR a god but apparently the complete lack of anything tangible is no barrier to the belief that something exists because hey c'mon you know.
Theists set out your proof and I get to look at it and see if I am convinced.
And I want actual physical things that can be verified by scientific method not namby pamby "arguments"
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
