Atheists can no more prove that God does not exist than theists can prove that God does exist.I was wondering if you guys wouldn't mind voicing some of your criticisms regarding atheism. Please do so in the space provided below.
So, anything that I might mention wouldn't be problems with atheism, but rather just some pitfalls of belief systems in general.
I'm not really a critic of atheism. I am critical of evangelical atheists.
You're absolutely right technically, Nanda, but for some, atheism does become a belief system.I agree, but will go one step further and point out (again) that atheism is not a belief system, but one single lack of belief; the only thing that all atheists have in common. It's difficult to find fault with "atheists" unless you're finding fault in that disbelief itself. Which many do.

Agreed.Maybe for some, but you can't honeslty say that "atheists" believe anything. Some atheists believe some things, others believe other things. It's like herding cats, as they say.
Atheists tend to believe that logic and reason are the only ways humans can or should explore "truth". They ignore the value and power of imagination and intuition as a means of defining the "truth".
I'd also add that some atheists don't even want to consider the possibility of anything supernatural.Atheists tend to believe that logic and reason are the only ways humans can or should explore "truth".

Someone please point out a TV show that evangelizes atheism, unlike the hundreds of xian evangelists in 50's hairdos that flood the airways every week.
Give me a break.

I think it's impossible to be a true atheist - everybody worships something, it is written in the heart of man. I don't care where you go, deepest depths of the jungle, they will be worshipping someone or something.
