Why are all Christians atheists?

I have to agree with your rationale here. I have only made a cursory glance at only a few posts thus far, but here seems to be a fundamental misappropriation of the word "atheist" when used in context to Christians. The defining principles of Christianity categorically state a monotheistic belief.Its nonsensical to say that one can be an atheist in most instances when by definition one must always be an atheist. Believing in even one God would completely nullify the usage of the very word. Its almost like Dawkins and the OP cannot accept theism unless in context to polytheism, rather than monotheism.BTW, good to see you all again Edited by nemesis_juggernaut, : typos

"Somewhere at the back of my father's mind, at the bottom of his heart, in the depth of his soul, there was an empty space that had once been filled by God and he never found anything else to put in it... At the centre of me is always an eternally terrible pain - a curious wild pain - a searching for something beyond what the world contains." -Bertrand Russell

Thank you, sweetie! Its good to be back, though I'll be off-line again in a few days because I'm moving. I don't know exactly when I'll be back online after the move, but it shouldn't be for more than a week or two.
