For those who don't know, atheism is the lack of belief, belief has nothing to do with it

ˈāTHēˌizəm/Submit
noun
disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods.

Yada yada yada! We've heard it all before from both sides and it just gets sooooo boring!😴
... belief, faith, and trust are all the same thing... Do you trust your eyes? Than you have a belief in what you see. Your lack of belief in god doesn't mean your lack of belief all together....

@Llort I found this to be funny

Mary: "Bigfoot exists".
Christian: "I don't accept that, as you have no evidence it does".
Mary: "So, you have a belief that BigFoot does not exist?"
Christian: "No, I DON'T have a belief it DOES."

Mary: "Are you are in the religion of Not Believing in BigFoot?"
Christian: "Are you a complete moron?"

@Llort Belief of what you've seen to be real since you were born does not justify belief in god. Nor is it an argument against atheism. Since atheism is the lack of belief in god or gods
Jesus fuck your still going.

You have no idea what is real around you. Truth is simply impossible. The most likely theory on existence is simulation theory. Even trusting what you think is real is truley real is a belief in and of itself.

My attack is not on your brand of atheism, but more on the terminology. It's an easy hole to poke in new athiest' beliefs. That it is in fact a belief system. That you cannot remove faith from science. That you chose to believe your senses.

These aren't bad things. In fact, I admire most poeple for at least having an opinion. Personally, I feel it's all garbage. Your belief in the void of some super being is the same in my eyes as the belief in some super being. It's all pointless nonsense, and arguing or claiming knowledge about such a topic isn't just futile; it's relatively childish. But please continue to hold onto some feeling that you understand some bigger picture. I'd rather just accept I don't know shit. Especially if it means choking down narrative just to regurgitate it in a bunch of different ways that arent directed at the conversation.

belief is without proof as every person has belief

@Firespirit Of course, you may believe that someone likes you, trust and belief a server didn't spit in your food even though you were rude to them. This is a lack of belief in theism specifically
