[font style="font-family:'Georgia','Baskerville Old Face','Helvetica',fantasy;" size=4 color=teal]That no matter what definition one uses to define an atheist it does not change our position on the issues.

Its like they think if they can change the definition they can claim we are wrong because we are making a claim...when in fact that changing the definition to suit their agenda does not suddenly make us implicit atheists start believing there are no gods.

It just another way for people like that poster to try and act as if they are superior to both theists and atheists...when it just makes them look like an ass.[/font]
