By the way, you can conclude something doesn't exist based on lack of evidence usingmodus tollens.
Thank you, interesting!
Am I understanding correctly that the premises have to be true for it to be logical reasoning? And considered usingmodus tollens?

lacking belief in them even before you heard of it
Like not being able to comprehend the idea? Like a baby?
Do you also think that dogs are atheists, fetuses and corpses? What about plants?

And as babies aren't born with a ready-made belief in god, they're not theists/deists.
I guess that just leaves atheism!
No, I still affirm that to lack belief in something you need to know what that something is..

Agnosticism means you are thinking about what you know. Babies don't do that. All they know is that the big thing has bags of food they like to suck on.
No, it means that you don't know/are not certain. If 100% is certainty than 0% "I don't know". Since baby's don't know, they are Agnostic.

Getting people to understand basic logic, science and critical thinking takes a lot of pages.
Cocky aren't we?

It was 1948 predicted mathematically in 1948, actually, so there was evidence for BEFORE it was detectable. You're also assuming that, when I said "undectable" I mean "with out current tools". I did not. I simply said "undetectable". If there is no way to detect God, ever, in any sense, then it can in no conceivable way interact with the universe.
I just showed you a way science dealt with fairies. What else are you after?
I never said you should. Why do ask questions about things I never wrote?
meaning lacking belief in them even before you heard of it, babies are similarly atheists.
I am simply pointing out that, in much the same way you are a-magical unicorn in my dog's butt, meaning lacking belief in them even before you heard of it, babies are similarly atheists.
No i did not have neither

Before you were aware of the magical unicorns made of meteorite teapots living in my dog's butt, did you have or lack a belief in them?
No i did not have neither, as said before; I don't think I can believe that unless I am first made aware of the idea.
Why do you think I should?

then you've also defined them as being something that cannot interact with nature and are therefore pointless in every conceivable context because they cannot possibly affect our world in any way.
I can't parse that sentence. Care to take another swing at it? The opposite of what? Does "except" mean accept or expect?

God
But God's existence is yet to be established. Babies are oblivious to other people's belief in god - that's why parents usually pass on their beliefs to their children.
You don't get ready-made, new-born true believers, do you? Form this it seems reasonable to conclude that neonates are without belief in god/gods and are therefore atheists.
I think I explained my position as well as I can here:
Since I don't think they entertain any belief at all, I don't think they believe in God and I don't think they disbelieve in God. They simply have no belief or opinion in the matter.
