Sorry about that, when I saw someone else mention strong vs weak my brain immediately interpreted it as aggressive or passive atheism. I’d interpret atheism as “the non-belief in the divinely supernatural.” I won’t expand that to include non-divinely supernatural at this point, but I’ve never met an atheist who believed in magic, etc. Maybe someone here can explain it to me, but I don’t see how this makes sense: I’m a weak atheist. I don’t believe that deities exist. Yet I refuse to say that I believe the following to be false: “There is at least one god.” If you don’t think think that that statement is false, that means you believe that there is at least one god. That means you DO believe that deities exist. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/religious-women-leave-me-the-fuck-alone-please/534902)._
