X, I only said that I prefer the term probability over likelihood. I agree that they mean the same, but probability is the one most used in statistics, etc.

In the final analysis all beliefs are, strictly speaking, untenable, therefore I choose those that are most probable, based on the evidence, not emotion or indoctrination.

I am curious why Atheists are asked to explain and defend their position. I have never seen anyone ask the Pope or Billy Graham to keep an open mind about the possibility that god may not exist.
