Atheism

And while we're on the topic of religion, I thought here might as well be a little outline of my beliefs or lack thereof. So here goes...

First of all I don't think there is any good scientific evidence either way for some sort of supernatural creator, and me being stuck here with a rational scientific mind, this means there's no evidence that's acceptable to me. This leads me to one result, what Graham Oppy calls a Fallibilist Atheist. That is, I don't believe there a god, but I am happy to accept that I might be wrong.

You might protest "But hang on, you just said there's no evidence at all, how are you suddenly taking a side" I see it like this: we are not debating between the existence of God A and God B, where yes indeed, the lack of evidence would require a fence-sitting position in the middle. What we are discussing is the existence of God vs absence of God. This is an incredibly important distinction, and to me, there is a very strong case that where there is no positive evidence for the existence of something, it is only logical to come down of the side of believing it doesn’t exist.
I don't have to disprove that there's a monster under my bed, but it is very reasonable to assume that it doesn't exist without having to conduct an exhaustive search of every nook and cranny, and missing sock, and old newspaper that might lie under this bed of mine.

It would otherwise get very exhausting if I had to rigorously disprove the existence of every possible conceivable entity before I could safely dismiss it as not existing. Surely in the lack of positive evidence for something that everyone can see how reasonable it is to assume it doesn't exist.

To me that's all atheism needs to be, yes you can take it further, but I don't think it's reasonable to take it any further. I believe there is no god, but I am not certain in any way about this.
