perfection is a matter of perspective
i was kind of hoping for more opposition against positive atheism
yes that's exactly what i'm confused about (indistinguishable things). to me it seemed that "knowledge" isn't something that is 100% certain by...
because i mentioned that strong and weak atheist seem the same, i'm also starting to think that the burden of proof is a bit silly. extraordinary...
it sure does. definitions start to lose their meaning when you can distinguish them from other definitions
actually i've heard these discussions many times: the some atheist trying to make clear that he does not believe in God and that he never claimed...
i've though a bit and this is a "new" thought i have been having. more specifically i haven't seen a difference in atheists that claim they: -...

why does it matter who started the argument?
i was kind of hoping for a more logical response. but you are right that arguing is probably pointless.
usually arguments are along the lines of: "if you look want to find 'god' then you will. if you didn't then you don't want to find 'god'."...
i think the answer is pretty obvious. you can already see the process. science improves its description of reality more compared to religion. and...
so basicly you're blaming obama for the increase in shootings? that's just sad. if chicago has strict gun laws, then it's pointless is if the...
i agree. i think there is also some unfalsifiability here. if you take the concept of "knowing" from agnosticism, it seems reasonable that nothing...
i don't think atheism excludes agnosticism. i do think agnosticism focusses too much on a small. i think it really depends on how one defines...
ultimately yes, but not necessarily in practice.
