Palm, this is thread #1 of me trying to be reasonable while listening to Judas Priest while posting on a flight. It all depends on how you look at it.
Why are atheists so intent on scorning "believers"?

I like point number 6 as well.
Even Dawkins leaves open the slight sliver of a possibility that there could be a god.
I am not saying that there is or isnt
If someone is athiest and firmly believes he/she is right.....that is fine.....lay out your case but respect the belief of others (as ridiculous as it may seem to you). If someone is a "believer" and firmly believes he/she is right.....that too is fine......lay out your case but please be respectful of those that do not share your (or any) level of faith.
We all have one thing in common. We got fed up with the Watchtower Society's dogmatic insistence that they alone are right all others that disagree are to be scorned or pitied. Let's learn something from that and respect one anothers' individuality.

My hubby is a believer, me not so much. I respect my hubby's belief and am not hell bent to change him. He respects my disbelief and doesn't try to impose anything on me. I wish the board could be like that. Maybe one day, sooner than later.

Unless you haven't realized it, majority of this forum is some sort of atheist.

I have never encountered an atheist who doesn't.
There might be an invisible teapot revolving around earth. I can't prove there isn't and I can't prove there is no god.
Atheists are humble that way. Unlike some believers we don't require certainty.

The term "some sort of atheist" doesn't make sense. There is a single definition of atheist. One that denies the belief in God. If you are "some sort" of atheist, most likely you are an agnostic.

I could care less what your definition is.
