After reading the DarkSyde's diary about atheism I felt I had to clarify a few misconceptions. The first thing is that his definition "I am a human being in which god-belief is absent" is a little simplistic. Most atheists I know do not have strong convictions about the absence of gods. It is impossible to logically disprove the existence of gods. However, it is possible to prove probabilistically that any particular god is infinitely unlikely. I believe it would be rational to believe in gods should their be credible evidence supporting their existence and I think it is crucial to rely on a scientific method to arrive at such evidence.
