"Is Atheism a Belief or a Lack of Belief?"

So clarify: Are you for, or against it?

That doesn't even make sense.

The problem of hard solipsism isn't something that you are 'for or against'...

Which leads me to ask YOU if you know what the problem of hard solipsism is?

Your world view and beliefs are false.

There is no god, there is no afterlife, no heaven and no hell, and your proclaimed
morality is nothing of the sort.

So if you genuinely are searching for truth, you have failed utterly.

Yes, I've "failed utterly" at times over the years.......

Haven't we all

Some choose to learn from their mistakes and take pains to do so.

Others choose to make the same mistakes over and over and over again...

Guess which camp you belong to.

Not sure what camp GB puts himself in but I am positive you're in the 'never learns from many, many, many mistakes' camp.
Hell, you've got the biggest tent there!

I ask again,"Have you heard of the problem of Hard Solipsism?"

You mean the belief that is logically unassailable. Where I am a figment of your overactive imagination, a bit of beef gone bad, as Scrooge might say, so only you can prove yourself wrong?

What about it?

You'd actually have a leg to stand on, were I constantly touting/toeing the party line.
The same can't be said for the atheists who haunt this forum: no matter what, no matter who, no matter why: they're always 'making a stand' against God, steadfast in their war against any and all who speak otherwise.
Predictably so.

I'm not 'making a stand' against god. What a ridiculous notion.

Indeed.
If only it weren't borne out with an avalanche of evidence otherwise.
Carry on.

You're an adherent of scripture though, so your reading of 'evidence' seems somewhat suspect to me.

I'm not actually a cat. You shouldn't believe everything you read.

I suppose you want me to take your word for that?
I think not: you're a cat, after all.

No that's fine, I'm not in the business of bursting bubbles. Incidentally, I know a guy who's selling a bridge... it's very cheap...

I'll bet that bridge is flat, right?

I believe it has a curvature of 8 inches.

That's because you are using a magnifying glass.
