In another post. I was referred to as a “self proclaimed Atheist” which I consider to be a strange title.
If I don’t believe in a god, it’s because I don’t see a reason to. I can give reasons as to why I’m not convinced. But I don’t see god as a default position for questions I can’t answer .
Atheism has the upper hand, because a religious belief can be proven to be false, or so unlikely that it can’t be true. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
