Who is atheist?

Atheist is a character in the religious science fiction movie:

Christian and Hopeful don't believe Atheist since they both saw heaven through a telescope shortly before meeting Atheist on the path. (Again, religious science fiction movie)

God sucks.

I'm not an Atheist, because I'm not against religion. It's the extremists and mean ones that bother me.

As Richard Dawkins would say, just because there are two sides to the argument doesn't mean they each have 50/50 plausibility. The fact is, to me, it is far more likely there is not a god than the possibility that there is. I believe the burden of proof is on the religious to convince us of his existence, because the observable universe is apparently without god--- that is, he cannot be experienced tangibly, which is as good as him not existing. I'm an Atheist and I live my life every day without God and I'm happy about it. Even if he did exist, I wouldn't believe Atheists would go to hell anyway. Only a petty, human-like God would be so upset not all of his 'subjects' worshipped him that he would send some of them to a fiery pit. I'd expect him to be more amused and interested in theories about why he did not exist. To me, God the way he's protrayed by religion is much like a Mayan sun god, somebody you must bow to and please because they're wrought with pitiful human feelings like anger and jealousy. If I believed in God, I would be a Deist.

Luckily, I don't. "Thank god" for Atheism and evolution.

I am an atheist because I think logic dictates the possibility of of a god existing is so low it pointless to believe in him/her/it whatever. I find the logic whereby you believe in something that has no proof silly, how about if I said I believe in the woodland fairy that lives under the rock at the end of my garden and then demanded respect for it. Would you laugh at me? would you respect my belief that she created all we know, and guides me through life? NO you'd probably want to avoid me, the woodland fairy and the Abrahamic god of the three great monotheistic religions of our time are the same, the only difference between them is their age and the amount of people that take it seriously.
