RE: Atheism is a position with assumptions...
Do you believe X? Nah... that's all atheism is, An answer; and it contains no assumptions. To call yourself an atheist is also noting nothing more but being aware of that.
Some outward atheists have other world views that hold assumptions. Well go figure, that's natural for everyone unless they're a masterful unwavering skeptic who can withhold their mind of any assumption. "Allow there to be a spectrum in all that you see" - Neil Degrasse Tyson |

Based on my views, and that of atheists this was never going to be a debate or a looking for friends kinda thing. |

And my ignore list grows by leaps and bounds.

What is pivotal is that that there is no convincing evidence for gods, not even any useful definition of gods. The abundance and complexity of life could have been considered a compelling case for an intelligent creator but then along came Darwin and Wallace who both realised the simple natural mechanism of evolution (decent with modification and natural selection). As yet there is no evidence to suggest any magical supernatural causes are required to explain any events, mechanisms or phenomena pertaining to our observable universe. |
