He is absolutely right. People who claim God exist are generally 100% certain. Those who claim Atheists say they don't know but because there's no evidence, there's no reason to believe. 

 

People who claim that Unicorns don't exist don't know with 100% certainty but there's no reason for them to believe they do unless the burden of proof has been met. 

 

I think there's a possibility God as defined by philosopher's can exist. I don't believe the bible God or Koran God exist though.

He would agree with that..................

Are you 100% certain that the bible God exist Quilts?

I am as certain as I need to be.

certain enough to bet your life or your kid's life on it?

I don't gamble.

If you're certain then it's not a gamble. 

I would. 

 

But if the shoe was on the other foot would you?

 

Cos from what I can gather most Athiests know what they dont believe in. But what about what they do believe in. So what is it that defines an Athiest (apart from the not believing in God bit) What is it that compells a person to semanticate themselves into the label of Athiest? 

😄 why would az bet her or her kids life on something that only she needs to be comfortable believing in?

What does it matter what she or anyone else believes?
