that didn't make any sense
if you PROVE god exists (ie, you show up at my door, turn my drinking water to wine, show me the future and the past blah blah blah) why in the world would I reject that?
that'd be like if you showed up in my car, and handed me a sports almanac from the future, and tuned into a football game and showed it predicted the right scores
I'd have to belive you were from the future (and get rich quick omg. although I'd like to think I'd buy a better trophy wife than Leah saggy eye what's her name)
If you are a true athiest, you would reject the fact that it was god because to you god does not exist. If god does not exist then this can not possible be god at yoru from door, there must be some other explanation for it.
If you do accept that it is god, then your not an extreme Athiest. When presented with facts you are willing to weight them against your personal beliefs and if the facts show you to be wrong, you are willing to change your beliefs. Extremes tend not to be willing to change their beliefs regadless of the facts that are presented to them simply becasue they honestly believe that they are right therefor your facts must be wrong.
A true Athiest believes 100% that there is no God, even when presented with evidence, they would conclude that the evidence must be wrong because they truely beleive god doesn't exist.
If you can say that you would change your view on the existance of God when new information became available to you, then a small part of you must think that it could be possible that their could be a god.
I ask you this. If you are so confident in your assertion that there could not be a god, no way no how. How is it possible for you to accept any proof that there is a god? If you truely believed god doesn't exist, you would have to come to the conclusion that the exidence of God is wrong.
