Not believing in God (depending on how you're defining it) is a belief. A belief based upon available (or not) evidence today. Unless you think that what you know now about 'God' is all humanity is ever going to know. Which is somewhat arrogant and delusional.
Show someone living 500 years ago an iPhone or Space Shuttle or nuke and it would blow their minds. And yet all the materials to make those things existed in their world too, all around them. The only difference is they weren't aware of them at that time and were not in a position to harness them.
How can you be sure we're the superior life form in an infinite universe? And how can you be so sure, knowing the scientific and technological advances made in just the past 100 years, that in 10,000 years there will not be some evidence one way or the other about 'superior' beings (Gods)?
BTW, rogueteens, you sound like an agnostic, not an atheist, and agnosticism is the most sane and rational position to take.
