jluetjen,
Ok I will not argue against strawman if you do not put them up...

Being a professed Athiest, you believe that "There is no God". I'm just trying to understand if there is any logic that supports that choice, or are you in the same boat as Christians -- namely basing your belief on faith?

I never said i believe there is no god, instead I can happily and confidently say that in my research based in my life from all of the facts around me I can conclude there is no god, none, nothing.....this is it, my one chance on this mortal coil. so in other words I know in my mind there is no god. when I apply Logic or ariadnes thread to this I keep coming to the same conclusion, if you want me to go into this further that is a topic of another thread.

Let's put Science aside because I'm not arguing that point. I believe that God gave us senses with which to learn about our environment. Science is good. But back to Athiesm, I wasn't asking you to tell me that logic has been and is consistantly applied to Atheism. I asked asked you to apply logic to Atheism.

I take the opposite approach. Evolution has allowed me to be a critical thinking being it was not bestowed upon me by some mythical being.
I do hold atheism up to this scrutiny and apply logic to it, and there are many arguments I can make but that is not the point of this thread. (although I would love to discuss this anytime in another thread)
