"My atheism, like that of Spinoza, is true piety towards the universe and denies only gods fashioned by men in their own image, to be servants of their human interests."

What the hell is an "atheist" anyway ?
There is no such thing. At most you can be an agnostic.
How can anyone claim that they KNOW there is NO god ?
Im so sorry but... TRUE atheists dont exist.

What they are trying to say is that they do not believe that there is a God.
They are not saying that they believe that there is no God.
This makes them no different from agnostics.
Excellent point!

I always thought that an Atheist, is someone who chooses not to believe in God or gods, because God "doesnt do thing the way they want to" ...
Some Atheist expressions are
" If there is a God, why doesn't he do this..."
" If God exhists, why did he let this happen ..."
So basically ...if things happened the way they want Atheists would believe in God.

Now.. if anyone genuinely want to know.. the reason many atheists are atheists is because they find belief in god illogical [and needless]. The universe is quite capable of existing without some old guy in the sky waving a finger to create a universe he depends on to exist in the first place.. personally I find the idea fanciful.

I ask you this, if there is no God, then you might want to stop using the word God since it is just a make belive word that should have no meaning for you.
