I just don't see how a pink unicorn from another galaxy taking a dumb on my lawn is "Superior".
(Superior as in aspects we humans give actual importance to?)
Well you really really are asking to be misunderstood then. You can't just use different definitions of words from everyone else's and expect that a sensible conversation can be had if you don't clarify first what you mean.
No one in their right mind will deny that it is plausible that *somewhere in the universe* there might be beings with capabilities superior to ours (the universe, as they say, is really big). That is not what is meant by being an atheist by anyone ever.
I typed down "Atheist definition" onto google and i got this:
"a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods."
I typed down "god definition" onto google but i got religious definitions of god only but what i understood is this:
"the supreme being","a superhuman being".
Doesn't that make an superior alien race in some distant planet a "God"?
Like i said,we all believe in "God" we just don't know it yet.
