And I would say that if there is no evidence for or against a theory that does not mean there is a 50% chance it is correct, and if I judge that the theory was so implausible it does not warrant ware and tear on valuable brain cells with one more thought about it then I would call myself a teapot atheist without apology. >>> Atheism which is a variant of Christianism >> >> >> >> And 2+2= 5 for extremely large values of 2. >> > > > Atheism use the conception of God given by people using authoritative > argument, and dismiss the talk of both the rationalist and the mystics. > That's like the fundamentalist > Well OK, if you radically redefine the word "God" and radically redefine the word "atheism" and radically redefine the word "variant" and radically redefine the word "Christianity" then atheism is a variant of Christianity, just as 2+2=5 if you redefine the symbol "2" to mean 2.5 ; but the trouble is I'm not bilingual and am only familiar with the English language.
