Atheism is well-represented in the Sciences.

Ah, you don't accept the claim as true without proof/evidence yet you seem to not be able to claim it as false. That is lending credence in my book.

Do you take this position with people who are actively delusional or hallucinating (medically)? In my world I have to be able to deny claims that are mental constructs and state that they do not exist (except as mental constructs).

I completely understand your position but I can't operate in a strictly philosophical world.

Delusion of a few = mental illness
Delusion of many = organized religion, which insists on being respected.

It will be interesting to see if the gap narrows. I doubt I'll be alive to experience it.
