  Labeling one self "Atheist" is Unscientific

  i have not meet all atheists, and it would be foolish for me to assume that all atheists, share the same prototypical view points.

  i am inclined to feel that this classifies the views of a large percentage of atheists.

  "atheism is, in a broad sense, the rejection of belief in the existence of deities.

  Dude, that doesn't even make sense. No one was suggesting that body parts have belief. That's not in context, doesn't make sense is and isn't something that's even been suggested. It has nothing to do with the fact that babies, lacking belief in god, are atheists.
  Seriously, I don't think you've ever learned how to construct a logically valid argument using critical thinking with supporting facts and evidence.

  lol. So, how do you differentiate between the plants lack of belief in God and the body parts lack of belief in God?

  You've already admitted you lacked belief in magical unicorns made of meteorite teapots living in my dog's butt before you knew they existed, so you've already confirmed yourself wrong. Do you need to know what a merkin is to lack one? Do you need to know what a digeridoo is to lack one? In what sense is it required to know what something is to lack it?

  Maybe you will understand if I turn it around.

  Remember belief deals with different degrees of certainty, weal/strong belief etc.

  Do you need to know what a merkin is to lack one?

  Would you say you lack belief in that I have a dog if I told you I do?

  Most people would probably have to say no.

  Do they need to know what my proposition was to not lack belief in it?

  Yes.

  Hence you need know what the proposition is to attribute a degree of belief to it.

  Correction. They start as atheist vs theist. The theist is quickly devoured and the atheists and agnostics turn on one another in a philosophical debate about debating and words that by their very nature a varied and founded in a theological world.
  The problem is the word GOD. As soon as it is used, a huge leap is made, this is undeniable. Atheist say they don't know and don't believe because historically the role filled by "God" known or unknown, has been explained away through knowledge, and this is likely to continue on. The that word in of itself if inflammatory and should have no place. If you don't say god no one has to say atheist.

  Quite humorous summary

  If they lack a belief in god, then yes.

  Then your definition is redundant, Theist are mostly Atheists except the conscious part of there brains. There feet are atheists, arms, legs etc...

  (Not in the sense that they reject all but one God)

  It exactly means that. You can't know whether or not you know something unless you've thought about it. Babies can't do that and they lack a belief in god(s), therefore they are atheists. Try again.

  Wrong.

  Did you know there is a blue star called: "Alcyone"? (if you do, insert something else you don't know, how many teeth a Tyrannosaurus have etc.)

  Now, how can you not know this, if you have not thought about it? (have to be something you have not thought about until now as well, of course)

  Hence, your logic is flawed. Try again.

  Facts are relevant, whether you like it or not. The fact is, there was strong reason to believe the CMBR existed prior to it's discovery. You not know knowing or mentioning that is irrelevant to whether or not it matters.

  Funny play with words. Facts are relevant in contexts and in this one, that fact where not.

  Oh, and by the way. Blue is a color....

  
  

  So then it IS testable and discoverable. You've managed to render your own argument moot. Congratulations.

  No, even if it is testable and discoverable. We can not know if humans will ever be able to test or discover it. Which was the point I argued, not this straw man you built. I get the feeling you are purposefully "misunderstanding" me...

  Why wouldn't they be? Why would god be any different?

  And again you play with words and build straw men... You know my point is that the discussion in this thread is about God, not fairies

  So far, not very much and no on the specific issue.

  You proved me correct in the very next sentence... If you don't understand that, I don't think explaining it to you will make any difference.

  From your own words, specifically, "I did not have..." If you don't have something, you are lacking it. Thanks for proving my point. Babies are atheists.

  I said "did" as in past tense, not don't. Please don't misquote me.

  I've enough cock for both of us.

  That sentence does not even make any sense.

  Or, two "Apostates" where having a meal without even knowing it :P

  Doubtful a undercover person who knows TTATT would bring up such matters under those circumstances thou. Such a person is usually more concerned with staying under the radar.

  Still, one can speculate...
