Atheist Religion

I thought this related well to my earlier post on the theistic argument for 'Atheist Faith'.

"I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours."

How do you know there is no Allah? Or Zeus?

God, Allah or Zeus would clearly fall within the realm of the supernatural world, a world which falls outside the scope of science. So in other words, there is no way to test a claim like "God/Allah/Zeus does not exist" scientificly. Same goes for the opposite stance of "God/Allah/Zeus does exist". Therefore any stance taken on the issue other than "I don't know/care" can only be seen as a belief or faith. You can not prove that there is no God, so to claim that there is no God is just as silly as claiming that there is one.

How silly you are A.C. So I suppose that you consider it silly to say that there are no unicorns, or fairies. It would be better to state that the supernatural does not exist and take care of the whole lot of myths that our minds come up with. If you don't have the guts or intelligence to realize that some things just are not real, that they are made up stories, then I feel sorry for you.

Allah exxists and shall punish anyone who is doing the wrong thing. Allah exists and thats why he is sending down diseases to the people who are bad.
