Why do I need to have faith? If I'm wrong, I'll look up at god and say "Forgive Me". And he will.
If I'm right, then I just die at the end.
Belief is for people terrified of being wrong. I don't need to have faith there is no god. I just assume there isn't, and live my life. I don't have nearly enough ego to care whether I'm right or wrong about it. it's like caring about whether or not Flat Earth is real.
I hope you can understand this, and not just reply with "Nuh uh, you believe!"

And you'd be wrong. There's no god.
Maybe this is the big thing that most religious people don't quite get: Athiests don't care enough about the issue to give it much more importance than "meh". Agnostics care slightly less than that.
It isn't like you'll have a bunch of Athiests in a room going "Gee, isn't it great that God doesn't exist?" We literally only discuss it to shut-up the born-again crispies. The rest of the time, we'll just do shit together, usually productive.
Now, the athiests that are religious about liberalism? That's a belief. Them faggots should be shot into space.

Atheists believe there is no god.
Believing there is not something and not believing in something are very different things.

Again, certainty of non-belief is very different than non-belief.
I.E. I don't believe in dragons, but I'm not 100% sure they don't exist. My life doesn't revolve around the non-belief of dragons and it requires no faith.
Edit: Non-belief is not an absolute, belief is.
How do you know for sure there is no Allah, Krishna, or Zeus? Can you test this? Can you prove it? Can you prove or disprove anything about the so-called "supernatural"?
plus one more.
Which one more? Are you implying that I believe in a god? If so, what did I say to give you that impression?

Nice mental gymnastics. Spend much time on tumblr learning that.

Ok. Looking around, no god. Proof. Prove god exists oh you only have faith. Yeah thats the same thing totally. Youre either actually stupid or just trolling.

I can't prove either but I do know if you grew up in the woods raised by wolves you'd have no concept of god and would be atheist by default. An atheist that needs to believe (italics) is doing a proactive action so I agree with you, where I disagree is you think that all atheists or agnostics are being proactive in thinking thus exercising faith; I haven't thought about the tooth fairy in months or even a year+, does that require faith to not believe? No. I know it's not real and am uninterested. Many atheists are the same. Atheists who argue daily with christians maybe are fighting by showing their faith.

No, at his indoctrination center church.

Exactly what I've been telling for almost two decades. If one is not full of shit, the only position in the face of the unprovable/undisprovable is agnosticism.
