"If there were no God, there would be no atheists."
G. K. Chesterton.

Does that mean that God must exist since there are atheists?smile

Honestly it just doesn't make sense. If there were no God and nobody believed in a God everyone would be atheists.

I'm also an avaderist. I don't believe Darth Vader actually exists.

So is anyone that's never even heard of Star Wars.

Atheism is nothing more than a position on belief. If you believe in a deity, you are a theist. If you do not believe or lack belief in a deity, you are an atheist. By definition, people without a conception of a deity are atheists—even if one conceived of a world where the idea had never come up in the first place.

There are more things in your philosphy, FFtio,
Than you have ever dreamt of. smile
With thanx to WS!

I'm also an avaderist.
I do believe Darth Vader actually does not exist in outer reality,
while I do believe that he exists in the inner reality of my mind....
which inner reality is the more real reality since it is what we use to make sense out of the virtual reality of outer reality.

So too does anyone who's heard of 'star' and 'war' also believe in star wars even tho they have not yet put those two words together and never even heard of Star Wars.

Atheism is only a position on belief in nothing.
If you believe in a deity and disbelieve in no deity, you are an atheistic theist.
If you do believe in no deity, you are a theistic atheist.

By definition, people with a conception of no deity are atheists—even if one conceived of a world where the idea had never come up in the first place...as with mind with 'star' and 'war' in it that has never out those 2 words together as in Star Wars or War-star.

In the Love for nothing that then makes something out of airy nothing,smile
