Certainly is not all I care about.
Glad you are having fun. We both should be.
But posting like a teenager makes you look bad.

Me, for one. You were talking about "sundown hours." Just thought they might have something to do with age.
If you truly meant Sundown Syndrome...why didn't you use it? Why use (non-caps) sundown hours?
I hope I am funny.
What does that fragment sentence mean?
Seriously, though, sorry to hear about your early stage dementia.
You post like an anencephalic toddler. So why are you sitting in judgement of me?
Another amateur one. You gotta do better than that.
Or are you trying to look like a moron...so it will look as though I am being a bully.
Tsk, tsk, tsk. You really have to do much, much better...just to be doing poorly.
C'mon. Pick up your game.
Why do I gotta do better? I think I'm on the mark.
Nope... I know what each word in that post meant.Did you look up all the words? Bet you did.

You lost me after the "I think..." I knew you were kidding at that point.
Yawn. Boooooring. You are boring me now. Be more entertaining. Tell me more about your "philosophy" classes. How about your math classes. Apparently you learned math before the invention of the transitive property.
LOL. I knew it. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.
Tell us some more lies about what you studied in "college". LOL.

We arrive at the belief that a deity doesn't exist in different ways, I think, Frank.
The reason that I'm an atheist instead of an agnostic is because
it is to me seriously illogical that a perfect, omnipotent deity
would willfully create such an incredibly imperfect universe.
It is to me seriously illogical that a perfect omniscient deity
would create sentient creatures
that the deity knows in advance were going to commit grievous transgressions.
It is especially illogical to me that the allegedly created creatures
would actually worship an omnipotent, omniscient deity
who knew in advance how much those creatures would suffer.
If they fear the deity, why would they purport to love the deity?
Why would they even suggest that in addition to being omnipotent and omniscient,
the deity was all-loving as well?
To me, the existence of a deity is more than unlikely enough for me
to see myself as an atheist rather than an agnostic.
Should I be agnostic about
Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy as well?
They are going to scream about that. Get ready. They really dislike anyone trying to understand their selective application of agnosticism.
Okay...and here is something you can work with.
Math is definitely not my strong suit...or at least the kind of math needed for college work. I never took algebra in high school, because college was the last thing in my mind. But I took lots of courses while in the Air Force (Maryland extention courses taught by Oxford dons)...and managed to accumulate over a year of credits. So I enrolled in college when I was discharged.
My math deficiency caused me some enrollment problems, but my advisor managed to get me to substitute some philosophy and psychology courses to make up the deficiency. Since my undergrad major was Economics, I had to take Economic Statistics...the advisor also reuired that I take Math statistics (a related but different course)...and I had a minor in psychology, so I had to take a third statistics course in psychological statistics (also related, but different.)
That is my college math. Not impressive...even to me.
Transative property came up...so did a whole bunch of other stuff that I was able to deal with, alsthough I had to devise ways to do so.
I was the first person from my family to go to college...and when I mentioned to my father that I was going to do so, his response was, "What the hell ya gonna do that for?"
So...it was a bit of a lift for me.
Some people were more lucky...and got the motivation from family that helps.
I did it on my own.
Any questions?
Be agnostic about anything you want, Nifty.
You are an atheist because you see the likelihood of "no god" to be greater than the likelihood of "at least one god exists."
Not sure about O. He doesn't answer that question. He diverts to the likelihood of "one GOD" versus "many gods."
Oh jeeeezus now we're in it....
Wow, your backstory is even more boring and stupid than I thought it would be. What did you major in in college and do for a living?
Whatever it was it must have been pretty simple.
I love how you think your "question" is some sorta gotcha.
I'm honestly going to try to answer your stupid fucked up question without using words you didn't select:
Do I see the LIKELIHOOD of "no god" to be greater than "at least one god". No. I seem them as EQUAL. Equal to zero.
