You can get angry and stomp all you want... you don't have power over etymology. The word is not what you say it is.
Even now you admit that there are atheists who do not insist that god isn't real.
I can promote the lack of belief in god all day without needing to prove your god doesn't exist. Just as I can promote not believing in aliens without actually needing to prove aliens couldn't exist.
I think The Messianic Manic said it well in his most recent video (from 1:22 onward): "I don't attempt to show that god doesn't exist. I simply try to explain why I am not convinced that god exists."
A neutral blank slate is the beginning of the human being, Atheism as promoted is a belief about the universe. You can get angry and stomp around all you want, you are promoting a belief. Neutral atheist aren't here on the Christian form trying to undermine faith, they are taking advantage of their very short lives.
As I noted earlier, we've discussed being "spirit-born" before.That would all change if he were spirit born. He would be just as perplexed trying to explain his new found spirit father.
There are genuine atheist who are indifferent, don't care, just stay out of my yard and my life. they really don't care. You aren't one of them, you are promoting Atheism as a belief system. But naturally you will disagree.

Your Atheist dogma is defiantly nasty, I agree with that.

Belief is belief.
A Godless existence is a belief about the universe.
That changes when one is spirit born.
I call it a kind of faith because you cannot definitively disprove God.

Indeed. And atheism is exactly not that. Atheism is NOT a belief.
Theism is a belief.
Atheist is what you are if you do not have theistic beliefs.
Derp.
No, it is not.
What changes when you go from atheism to theism is that you acquire a belief in gods.
What changes when you go from theism to atheism is you lose a belief in gods.
You need to believe something to be a theist.
An atheist is what you are when you do NOT have those beliefs.
Derp.
If Mark Twain believed what he knew wasn't so then he was insincere.
Earlier you said you have Love, I believe you, I don't need for you to prove it, in fact, I know you couldn't prove it in the same way you demand for me to prove my relationship with God. That's what Atheist do, you think of augments and construct questions that you know cannot be answered in a scientific kind of way. This is deceptively self validating.
You have already given your evidence for your belief and it consisted of two things.
1. Your faith (confidence)
2. Your love (desires)
Those are not evidence. Since your belief does have or require evidence, no evidence is required to disagree with it. I need no more evidence to disagree with you than I need evidence to disagree that my little pony is real and I like my little pony a lot better than the bible.
And yet it was clearly answered from the Scriptures.The problem, AV, is that the answers given are unsatisfactory,
No, you are just impressed with your own BS and believe that to be proof of something.
So our martyrs died for something they knew wasn't so?In the words of Mark Twain.... "Faith is believing what you know ain't so"
Yet I still have faith and you still have doubts.
