    The existance of a God that is listed in the books that have been written on this planet, makes absolutely no sense.

    However, I always find it funny when Athiests are sooooooo sure they're right and find people who believe in a God to be silly or ignorant, when KNOWING one doesn't exist is just as ridiculous.

    we can be certain that certain types of gods don't exist. most atheists i know of are agnostic atheists, where we might acknowledge that one might exist, but if it does exist it isn't really a god at all, more like an addition to nature.

    please elaborate on this?
    "Their [the new atheists] treatment of the religious viewpoint is pathetic to the point of non-being. Richard Dawkins in The God Delusion would fail any introductory philosophy or religion course. Proudly he criticizes that whereof he knows nothing... I am indignant at the poor quality of the argumentation in Dawkins, Dennett, Hitchens, and all of the others in that group."

    ~Michael Ruse, atheist & author and philosopher of biology at Florida State University

    Is it also rediculous to not believe in Unicorns? Are you sooooooo sure they don't exist? Using your logic I expect that you believe in every fantasy creature.

    Most rational people however don't say something is true because we can't proove it isn't true. We usually require evidence before we say something exists, not the inverse.
