As suggested in my post, I propose that atheism should vanish into either the belief set of agnostics, or deists. I mean, both just make more sense.
I feel to go as far as being an atheist, requires some sort of inner "knowiness," or "truthiness" as Colbert might put it. Otherwise, it's the product of rebellion, and arrogance, as outlined in my post.
For me, if there is no scientific evidence of a God then the entire question of his existence is rendered
irrelevant. In this sense God, as far as science is concerned, can be said not to exist. In the light of modern scientific discovery he is simply not required as a variable.
My take on Atheism is an implicit one - it isn't so much a question of whether God exists (which is currently unverifiable) but whether the universe around us requires his presence. Since science has so far consistently shown that the universe operates without divine intervention, then we can, at this time, simply discount God as a requirement.
