As I am getting older I also begin to see how silly twenty-somethings are; in fact its annoying because when I see them I see what I used to be, a pseudo-intellectual puffed up little pup who thinks they knew about the world just by reading a lot of news. Twenty-something agnostics are also very annoying, this was me as well, until I grew up a heart, brain, and a dick.
I've seen some idiots in my college who are anti-Israel and think they'll actually accomplish anything. The members are very full of themselves and think they know the solution to everything which they don't, one wants to implement direct democracy but doesn't realise how incredibly difficult that would be in practice. In my last year of college. The other people in my course are so diabolically stupid, even after 4 years of doing this shit, it's sapped my will to do the work and go to classes, because I figure, if they can get a degree, anyone can, what's the goddamn point?
Atheists know they dont know everything and without proof they will not just accept an idea as valid. Making claims about how everything came to be without any evidence is the game of religion. Atheists having 100% knowledge there is no god is a statement religious people and agnostic kids convince themselves of. Even Dawkins states that he doesnt have 100% knowledge the there is no god. The point to being an atheist is to demand proof for a claim, and if proof is not given, there is no reason to accept it. God is just as much mythological as any other creature ever made up by man, he deserves no exception, after all 99.9% of all the Gods that have ever supposedly existed are now extinct. We are all non believers in them, atheists just take it one god further
We have no reason to give unicorns the benefit of the doubt as we know that we created them through mythology and shit. We don't know why humans exist, we don't know why life exists but it does. Atheism does not answer all the questions, and if you think it does, there is no way you know for sure.
Its about burden of proof, if there is no evidence there is no reason to believe. I am sure we are both atheists about those unicorns and fairies, but there is just as much evidence for them as there is for god. I dont know if there is or isnt a god, but from all the evidence, it sure seems like there is no compelling case for one therefore I do not believe. If you are agnostic about God then you must be agnostic about everything else in the world that a person might claim to exist regardless of facts
