  • You’re an Atheist, you are as much a person of faith as the religious.

    Belief in something you can’t possibly know or prove.

    • The burden of proof is on the person who believes in the existence of whatever it may be.

      If I told you pies exist, and you said pies didn't exist, it would be my job to go and buy a pie, as opposed to your job to convince me that it's impossible.

      In my case, nobody has been able to buy me a tangible-enough pie.

      • It’s not a topic that can be proven or disproven, it’s beyond burden of proof for either side.

        If you believe there’s nothing there without being able to prove it, it’s faith.

        If you believe there’s something there without being able to prove it, it’s faith.

        Agnosticism is the only rational mindset, not claiming to know that which cannot be known.
