  Prove it.


  prove what
 

 Prove that atheists are right.

what is there to prove?

If they are right about something (IE there being no god) then there has to be some sort of proof to suggest that.

Srsly.

Why do those damn atheists have to force their beliefs on the rest of the population, whether they believe in the same things or not?  Why can't those godless bastards keep their secular views out of public policy?

Oh wait...

PEOPLE are assholes. Atheists, agnostics, Christians, Muslims, Jews, etc... there's always a percentage of them that are douchebags.

All i know is i see far more people being killed in the name of a religion. Atheists don't just go around shooting people because they 'don't have moral values.'

I bet if there were a study done, it would show that the majority of crimes have been committed by those of faith. Simply because there are more of them.

being an atheist seems to be a fad nowadays.

Atheist is the new bisexual for teenagers on the interwebs.

You act like atheism is the belief that there is no god. As it isn't, you don't really have much of a point.

Er...I'm confused. Isn't that what atheism is?

NOUN: 1a. Disbelief in or denial of the existence of God or gods. b. The doctrine that there is no God or gods.

I'm getting confused...

Atheism is the lack of belief in gods. Most intelligent atheists recognize that it is logically indefensible to assert that there is no god, just as one cannot justify belief in god with pure logic.

So the definition is wrong? (Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Atheists, I'm just not sure I'm understanding what you are trying to say)

Very subtly, yes. The dictionary tends to do an imperfect job of defining religious terms.

So, Atheists don't believe there is/are no God/gods?

I think it's more impotrant to look at things from all possible view points, that way you get a better idea of the big picture from not only your view but the view of all the other people around you. You can still keep your own opinion but it's also nice to know what page everyone else is on.
