You're right in one sense.... Atheists who claim absolutely that there is no "creator" of any kind, I think, need to prove their claims. I don't think there are many atheists of that type. I'm of the opinion, however, that most think like I do, ie we are not smart enough to know that answer, but will accept the fact that, compared to most, we are atheistic. We accept no gods, saints, angels, human divinities, etc. because we have not been convinced of their existence. If you have such proof, you can make a believer out of many. Maybe the Deists are right, ie there was a creator or power of some sort who got the whole thing started, but they don't think that entity exists any longer and they never believed in a personal god.
BTW, when you find the person who has THE answer, worship him or her.... |
