(diverted from [thread=52974]Why people are so attached to their opinions [/thread] in Free Thoughts) There is a secondary question in the above which also merits attention: why do I think I am right? This is based upon a slight misunderstanding of what atheism is about. Atheism is not an assertion about which a person can be right or wrong. Some people mistakenly believe that being an atheist entails asserting that "no god exists," and thus is something a person can be right or wrong about. In truth, atheism is simply the absence of belief in any gods, rendering the description of right or wrong inappropriate. Hi Singularity, Why does this imply that Mr Cline is a 'psycho'?
