Igtheism
Rdwin McCravy
Christians, Jews, and Muslims believe that "God", "Yahweh" or "Allah" refers to something that exists.
Atheists believe that "God", "Yahweh" or "Allah" refers to something that does not exist.
Ignostics, theological noncognitivists, and igtheists do not believe that "God", "Yahweh" or "Allah" refers to anything that exists OR ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT EXIST! In other words, to say "God", "Yahweh" and "Allah" is equivalent to saying "Zod", "Vahweh", and "Xallah", i.e., meaningless utterances.
I have heard atheists say that "God" has many meanings. This is obviously false because Christians, Jews and Muslims all say the same thing: "God created the universe". That's not "many meanings". That's not a meaning because you can't think of anything that could refer to. If you are talking but not thinking of anything you could be talking about, then you're not making any sense.
I have also heard atheists say "God", "Yahweh" and "Allah" can't be meaningless, because then Christians, Jews and Muslims wouldn't be worshiping anything, and we know they do. Atheists think they have defeated me when they ask "What deity do Christians, Jews and Muslims believe in?" My answer to that is "They do not believe in any deity. They only think they do, speak as though they do, and behave as though they do. But they don't."
