Want to start a fight among atheists? Ask them to state what they believe without using the word "God." They have no trouble telling the world what they don't believe--they have enormous difficulty articulating what they DO believe.

They probably believe pretty much the same as you do, except on the whole "God" issue.

I have absolutely no trouble articulating my beliefs. I won't even mention such concepts as "original sin" and the afterlife, much less Jehovah. Why that would start a fight is beyond me.

I'll be glad to answer you. What specifically are you asking about my beliefs as an atheist? I'll to answer as best I can. If you are pointing out that the main tenet of atheism is a rejection of the belief of God, then you are correct that it is hard to describe atheism without including God in the explanation. That's not surprising - since a belief in God is clearly the default belief for the majority of people, people who don't share this belief would have to have a term to describe themselves.

I still don't understand how this would "start a fight among atheists." What would the fight be over?
