Rationally, and LOGICALLY, there can’t be any atheists.

To be an atheist, ONE HAS TO KNOW, without a shadow of a doubt, that there REALLY isn’t any God. So, how would an atheist KNOW FOR SURE that there isn’t any God.

So, since no atheist can know with 100% certainty that there is no God, then, LOGICALLY, there can’t be atheism. We can have agnostics, since they are hedging their bets, but they too do not know, and not knowing is uncertainty, and uncertainty is what Agnosticism is about. An atheist would have to know with certainty that there is no God, but there isn’t a single person in the world, now or in the past, who could have had that kind of certainty of NO GOD. Thus, Atheism is illogical. Hawking was/is illogical on the issue of religion and of God.

Extend your argument to theists and what you’re saying is that rationally and logically there can’t be any believers.
