Hello
I just read your article "There is no such thing as an Atheist" I believe your article is extremely flawed. You use the example that in order to say there is no gold in China you must have absolute knowlege of China thus an Athiest must have absolute knowlege of God in order to say God does not exist. Here is where you are wrong,
If you say you know for a "FACT" that there is no gold in China then you must have absolute knowlege of China because a fact implies you have proof! but to say "I don’t believe there is any gold in China", that is an opinion and whether that opinion is right or wrong, an opinion does not require proof, or any kind of knowlege of China. An Atheist does’nt need any kind of proof or knowlege of God in order to disbelieve in the existance of God because that is just his opinion. Let’s take your argument to the next step. if what you said was true, than you must believe in the Easter Bunny, Santa Clause, the Tooth Fairy and every other fairytail unless you checked every inch of the North Pole for Santa, checked every rabbit hole for the Easter Bunny, and under every pillow for the tooth fairy. now does’nt that sound ridicules?Ken
