This is something I have to preserve for posterity. A Christian told me this:
“Trying to cast a disagreement as a lie is symptomatic of primitive thinking. Look, there is no consensus among atheists that atheism is merely a lack of belief in a god. If atheism is merely a lack of belief in a god, are you admitting that pedophilia is atheistic since it too doesn’t involve a belief in god?”
So, my friends, do you agree atheism is a lack of belief in a god and only that? have you seen any other definition for atheism offered by an atheist?
It’s so cute to see Christians have to try to cast aspersions so utterly ineptly.
Addendum (10/14/19):
It’s even better to watch a conservative Christian intentionally lie when it comes to my comments and wondering just so “innocently” why I’m not answering posts: “Oh, and I noticed that many others have replied to you. Is there a reason you are ignoring them? Don’t you think that is kind of rude?” . Well, he’s not allowing them out of moderation and his blog so helpfully show this:
The snipping tool is just so handy: michaels failure
it’s rather like Christians trying hiding fossils. One might wonder if they’ve read their bible at all since lying isn’t looked upon favorably by their god.
Club Schadenfreude 
The continual and relentless attempt of Christians and amateur internet apologists to cast the definition of atheism as positive belief THAT God does not exist is just a dishonest effort to rid themselves of the burden of proof for their claim THAT God does exist, but shifting it to atheist to PROVE God doesn’t exist.
They know it’s dishonest but they continue doing it because they know they can’t meet their burden.

Paedophilia doesn’t involve a belief in god? Someone better tell the Catholic church.

There’s just so much wrong with that christian’s comment that I don’t really know where to start. Religion has obviously worked very hard to make sure this person doesn’t have a clue about how to think clearly. And has taught them that trying to derail the conversation with a bunch of unrelated B.S. counts as an argument.

“Look, there is no consensus among atheists that atheism is merely a lack of belief in a god.”
So to be an Atheist you must lack belief in a god, or gods. So to be an Atheist you must lack belief in God. Is that not a consensus?
Comparing Atheists to pedophilia? I thought pedophilia was a gay issue. I guess the next logical step for a Christian is to make all Atheists gay. Damn it, now I’m starting to think like them.

Definition of pedophilia from Wikipedia: Pedophilia, or paedophilia, is a psychiatric disorder in which an adult or older adolescent experiences a primary or exclusive sexual attraction to prepubescent children.
No mention of “gays.” No mention of same sex attraction.

Interesting post. It almost channels mine from this morning. I’m sure you will read it (Dispassionate Doubt).
I was not aware that atheists must agree on anything. If we do, that would be quite an unusual event.
Define the word however, I am convinced there are no gods. Please convince me otherwise. Waiting.

Has anyone had really good sex and said “OH My God” repeatedly while cumming? Has anyone had a really good hit off a crackpipe or a shot of some really good heroin and said “OH My God” when the rush came on? Or maybe hiked a really nice hike up a mountain in the countryside and when we gazed upon the valley we couldn’t help but to say “Oh My God its so beautiful”? Or how about that cold glass of water after almost dying of thirst being parched for hours on end, “Oh My God I needed that” And not to miss that special moment when our child is born into this world and we can’t believe our eyes at the baby that is apart of ourselves, “Oh my god I created this child with my own body with the one I love”.
Well this is our testimony and worship of the so called little gods we worship in this world. The elemental gods of creation in the fallen world. Which in thinking, doing and saying so we confirm the existence of the One true God over the so called little gods of this world, Yah is His Name and every knee will bow before Yeshua His Son for overcoming the world and its elemental gods who keep us in bondage. You are Loved by the One who hides his face until our Kairos now.

Edited by site owner: video links with no commentary aren’t allowed. This was a video with the usual Christian claim that their god and only their god is the creator. Most, if not all religions make this baseless claim.

Sorry, OK, but if you want to post a link to a video, you need to explain what that video is and why you think it should be watched. The video that OK gave is some nonsense about how the universe is “evidence” of his god, but OK has forgotten that all religiions make this claim and those religions have no evidence that their gods did anything at all.
OK, you need to give evidence that your version of your god is the creator, not just some vague bullshit that you’ve dug up.
