"No TRUE atheist would..." ( a tongue-in-cheek post)
What sorts of things would no TRUE atheist say/do/believe?

I'll start:

No TRUE atheist would ever tell anyone their beliefs about the supernatural were wrong. Only FAKE atheists do that!

2. TRUE atheists would always be open to the possibility
that g-d, God, Allah, etc does exist.

A TRUE atheist knows that they believe there is no god only because they are unable to prove there is no god.

A TRUE Atheist would NEVER post any criticism of religion in a LBN thread reporting yet another child abuse/molestation/murder at a church daycare facility.
