    I think one of the issues is the slippery nature of atheists and atheism. Talking to atheist friends most of them think that the advertising runs contrary to the essence of atheism. Atheism is, at it's core a reactionary position. It has no creed, dogma, belief, tenet - whatever you want to call it - so it becomes very difficult to debate as there is no opposing view. Essentially atheism would not and does not exist until some says 'i beleive in god' .

    • Not really. Atheism is entirely dependant on the existence of god.Morning_star
    • I think you mean "dependent on the *idea* of existence of God"ribit
    • Not really. If the theists were spouting about the *idea* of existence of God" the atheists would have very little to get all high and mighty about.Morning_star
    • ...high and mighty about.Morning_star
    • But the aethiests are spouting about the fact other people think there is a God...ribit
