I am an atheist. It is the only rational position possible until some compelling evidence for a god or gods is produced.
I find the sun to be a lot clearer. So did George Carlin:
"So rather than be just another mindless religious robot, mindlessly and aimlessly and blindly believing that all of this is in the hands of some spooky incompetent father figure who doesn't give a sh!t, I decided to look around for something else to worship. Something I could really count on.
"And immediately, I thought of the sun. Happened like that. Overnight I became a sun-worshiper. Well, not overnight, you can't see the sun at night. But first thing the next morning, I became a sun worshiper. Several reasons. First of all, I can see the sun, okay? Unlike some other gods I could mention, I can actually see the sun. I'm big on that. If I can see something, I don't know, it kind of helps the credibility along, you know? So every day I can see the sun, as it gives me everything I need; heat, light, food, flowers in the park, reflections on the lake, an occasional skin cancer, but hey. At least there are no crucifixions, and we're not setting people on fire simply because they don't agree with us"
Why don't you go ahead and make that laugh respectable by inserting a sky pixie into the mix. Now you've got something worthy of respect and serious consideration.
We have no evidence. Neither do the theists. The difference is that we know it and say so.
Not even that. There's nothing to argue about. Unlike the faith-based thinker, the rational skeptic needs a substantial reason to believe something before believing it, and lacking a reason to believe in gods, is an atheist. What is there to argue about there?
It's when the theist arrives on the scene making fallacious arguments or empty or absurd claims, we respond. If theism ever dies down to the level of say Druidism, and becomes invisible in the culture at large, theists probably won't ever hear from us again.
