The three hardest words to get an atheist to say, “I don’t know”.
That Atheist Delusion one needs voice coaching.
I’m finding that as I read the same old things that I read in the old time atheists that my attention is wandering. Though the discovery of how many delusions the “rationalists” have about the nature of science and logic are rather interesting. I’d never realized what a basically supernatural attitude about science so many atheists have. That has been a surpise to me this time around.

I just went to a meeting of my local Atheist Society, and was expecting to meet some free-thinking intelligent and rational people, but it seemed to almost be the exact opposite. While most of the group seemed reasonable, some of the ones who actually shared their views were downright irrational – and you’re right, many of them would have a hard time saying “I don’t know”.
Thankfully, the speaker (who I already knew) is not one of those atheists – he quite happily said “I have no idea” to a number of questions.
I’d be interested in hearing more about this “supernatural attitude to science” you say atheists have – you written about it anywhere?
