How atheist are you?

RE: How atheist are you?
I'm a two I suppose.

There's always a chance the atheists are right, though I don't think that's the case.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

I'm a 7 about many gods, and a 6 about a few gods.

Nah. It's excited pussies in general.

I definitely believe in that god Razz

I'm a pussy worshiper. Screw the idea of God as a dude. What a penis.

This isn't a popularity scale.

For the same reason that Dawkins felt the need to write his book that the scale is resided in.

Belief in God is fucking silly... and yet the majority of people accept that silliness, and it's a silliness that can have negative consequences.

Although yeah, I'm personally bored of it. But I'm also the kind of guy who says what he thinks even when there's no good reason to say it.

I just think aloud, you know? That's me. I see this thread and I answer it.

I don't think I need an escape clause. If he can read my mind, I'm a dead man walking...

I do not know whether God exists but I operate under the assumption that he doesn’t.


Interesting, I don't recall the 5 and 6 being defined as they are in the OP.  I don't see an important difference and could just as easily choose either or 5.5 as you did.

Mark, as atheists, I think the 5 and 6 are differentiated by how hard you laugh at Lik's posts...

Lessee:

I wanna sell inflatable baby Jesus love dolls to horny pedophile priests,

I wanna do double entry fucking of Jesus nail holes with Brett Favre

And I commissioned an Atheist Forum logo contender portraying the elephant of atheism proclaiming as much by trumpeting his trunk while it was stuck in Jesus butthole.




So I'm either at negative or positive 100 on the graph
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

It's perfectly simple. If this god incorporates any aspect of teh supernatural then it doesn't exist. Supernatural = magic, magic isn't real. You can't walk on water unless its frozen and you can't turn two loves of bread into five thousand fish, or whatever it was.  If you've been dead for three days you're staying fucking dead!

RE: How atheist are you?
I'm a 6 regarding the existence of A God of any kind and a 7 regarding all the claims I have heard of a specific God.

I think it's unfortunate that so many people poo poo this poll. Labels are indeed imprecise and sometimes a pain in the ass but they are a useful tool. I told everybody my rating on Dawkin's scale. That is definitely inadequate if you want to know who the hell AFTT47 is but it's a useful indicator if you want to start a conversation with me concerning the existence/non-existence of generic or specific God/gods. You don't really know me much better but you do have a foundation upon which to build a conversation that you didn't have before.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
