THIS IS WHATS SO SAD ABOUT THIS WORLD, I JUST RECIEVED A MESSAGE FROM A PERSON WHO DOESNT BELIEVE IN CHRIST, THIS IS THERE BELIEFS: What is an Atheist? Richard Watson states in his 1831 book, A Biblical and Theological Dictionary: “Atheist, in the strict and proper sense of the word, is one who does not believe in the existence of a god, or who owns no being superior to nature.” Robert Flint, in his 1885 book Anti-Theistic Theories states: “Every man is an atheist who does not believe that there is a God.” Strong Atheism The strong atheist, also known as an explicit atheist or a positive atheist, denies the existence of God or any other deities. This person’s views are based solely on what can be found to be true using the scientific method. Since the existence of God cannot be proven using science, the strong atheist concludes that God doesn’t exist. Weak Atheism The second type of atheist is the weak atheist, also known as an implicit atheist or a negative atheist. This person does not deny the existence of God outright, but rather claims a religious relativism. That is, she would claim that anyone’s belief can be true for that person, but she doesn’t believe in God herself. An Atheistic Worldview What are the implications for a religious atheist? Without God, he arrives at the necessary philosophies of moral relativism and naturalism. But does his view line up with objective reality? And is there any evidence for a God - See more at: allaboutphilosophy.org/what-is-an-atheist-faq.htm#sthash.IxfHlr8i.dpuf
