Google it.
Edit: What is 'yuge'?
I googled. There doesn't seem to be such a thing as a 'global dictionary'.
'Yuge' is the way Donald Trump pronounces 'huge'. I should have thought you would have looked that up in your imaginary 'global dictionary'. It's on the shelf, right next to your planetary thesaurus.

Simply say to them:
(1) They don't observe themselves as omniscient.
(2) They want to absolutely believe that God exists. (Impossible, due to (1))
(3) They don't probably believe that God exists.
So, they possess zero degrees of belief in God.
Lack of belief in God, is atheism. And... You have tested this theory of yours? With a stopwatch?

The great thing about this is you don't even have to meet these people in order to deconvert them. You just sit in your bedroom writing things about them.

It would be interesting to see the number of theists presented with this looney tactic vs the number of theists convinced by it, correlated with time.
I strongly suspect that the results will look an awful lot like 'nil'.

I suspect that the average theist would nervously try to back away.

Damn. I've just turned into a theist now.

At most you've shown them to be agnostic theists. Try harder next time

I'll just let the theists on this site tell you how quickly this method works on them.

I had not been aware of ' agnostic theism'.
It appears I have erred, in the expression of the original post.
