And I'm not quite sure what was meant by putting Mike's name in quotes. Actually, I responded directly to all of Mike's points.

He has every hallmark of a hit-and-run. And I have a strong antipathy toward anyone who thinks atheism means "God does not exist" as opposed to "I don't believe in God". Atheism is not a fucking positive claim. It's a lack of faith, that's it. It's not that we knew God and rejected him, or that we believe actively that God doesn't exist (meaning we have the same idea of God that you do), it's that we don't think deities are very likely and go about acting like they're irrelevant. Because, you know, they ARE. Bet he never shows up again to collect his well-earned scorn and derision. He has every hallmark of a hit-and-run.
