aaaha, no. Your repeated inability to see through the fallacies of Religion should instantly disregard anything you have to say on the matter.

it's funny...because there are no inherent 'fallacies' in Atheism. There are questions left unanswered, yes, but the whole point of atheism is to accept these questions are unanswered and subsequently seek the truth about them rather than fill in the blanks as you deem fit. Therein lies the fallacy of religion: Assumptions of truth rather than proof of it.
Your crusade against atheism is frustrating to witness, that's for sure. Your assumptions about me are equally frustrating.

No padib, just no. fallacy of atheism: Assumptions of truth rather than proof of it. No, atheism isn't an assumption of anything, it's a lack of an assumption really. Atheism is the default position until evidence of the existance of god(s) is given. I'm not claiming there is no god, I'm just at my default position of not believing in one until someone gives me a reason to. You are the one making the claim that there is a god, therefore the burden of proof is on you.
there are no inherent 'fallacies' in Religion. No comment.

No, you fail again. If you postulate that there is no God, you need to account for everything in life today; hence Evolution. Atheism isn't a convenient negative position as you would like it to be. Negating a grand cause, you need to make up for it with something else.

But padib, I don't postulate that there is no god, I don't know, the part that makes me atheist is where I say I don't think there is one (if you want to know why, you can ask). But I'm not asserting this, as I said, I don't know. And I will think there is one when I'm given evidence of it. You assert that a god exists (based on past conversations with you). You got any evidence? And furthermore, any evidence that this god is the god described in the bible?
To the part in bold: No I don't, I simply say I don't know what happened before the big bang (assuming that's what you're talking about) and don't make any assumptions as to what did happen or if anything happened.
