Knowledge is a subset of belief. Then "I don't know" (the wombat) is the true non religion, not the atheistic "there is no God". Atheism assumes truths not proven (faith). Wrong. See the gumball analogy above.

Yet, if the number of gum balls is in fact, even, the atheist is wrong.
And since there is only two choices odd or even. If the atheist says their number is not even, the atheist is, in truth, saying the number is most certainly odd.

Too abstract for some, it appears.

Zzzzzzzzzzz rinse repeat. I could make your argument better than you are. You would have to understand it first.

I understand that when you resort to ad hominem attacks you are defeated.

You never came up with an answer for my knock-down argument the last go around.
Now I'm just coming up with new ways to prove you wrong.

You never had a knock down argument. I gave you at least 5 points that you never even addressed.
It is very likely that no God exists, but to unequivocally state there is no God requires a measure of faith.

"It is very likely that no God exists"
That is the core Atheist position.

"It is very likely that no God exists" That is the core Atheist position. Now see, that is a religion I could join, but it is not the core tenant of the majority of atheist denominations. Webster's says: Definition of atheist : a person who does not believe in the existence of a god or any gods. This religion requires a measure of faith I cannot have.
