I'm curious BADecker, enlighten me please, how exactly does someone practise atheism?
That's the trick, right? Practicing, right? Since an atheist knows that God might exist, he knows that:
A. He doesn't know that God doesn't exist, and therefore can't believe atheism when he knows the opposite might be true;
B. He doesn't know for sure that God doesn't exist somewhere, he is setting himself up as god over God by proclaiming that God doesn't exist.
All this means is that either the so-called atheist is setting himself up as god, or acknowledging, inwardly, that he isn't an atheist. This makes atheism in the atheist to be non-existent. What the so-called atheist is doing is something else... not atheism. Part of it is lying.
So, how in the world can he be practicing atheism?
I didn't ask for a bunch of verbal diarrhea about whether you think atheists exist or not, I asked a simply question about how you believe someone practises atheism, after all, you're the one who made the statement.
I should have known better then to engage you with a direct question, my apologies to all other forum users.
People don't practice atheism. I can't answer your question with a method for doing something that isn't being done.
