Do you have the right to be an atheist?

[KevinM1]

What does any of that have to do with your poll question, which asks about the right to be an atheist?

And, like others have said, you had a misconception of atheism from the start. While there are gnostic/strong atheists who assert there are no gods at all, period, end of story, the majority of atheists are agnostic/weak. What that means is simple:

We can't believe in something that doesn't have credible evidence pointing to its existence.

That's it. Nothing more.

We tend to dismiss existing religions because they're built upon nonsensical assertions and self-contradiction. At this moment, there is no credible evidence for divinity. None. But that doesn't mean a god/creator entity doesn't exist. It just means we haven't found actual evidence for it. And, as human progress has shown, the answers to many of life's biggest questions have been entirely natural rather than supernatural. Given that trend, many of us lean towards probably not, with the right to change our minds in light of new, credible evidence.

Put another way, theists keep claiming there's a god. We keep asking them to prove it, since they're the ones making the claim, so the burden of proof lies with them. They invariably reply with bible passages, "mysterious ways," and "it's a deep, personal relationship," none of which is actually credible evidence for a variety of reasons. We remain unmoved. That's about the sum of it.
