Real scientists recognize Atheism as being illogical as both it and Theism are based on faith.
The Agnostic position is the only logical position one can take, as it is not faith-based and it makes an assertion that is true: we don't really know if a God(s) exist or do not exist. There's no proof that one does, and there will never be proof that none do.

- VikingCoder 11y agoI don't believe there is sufficient evidence for the existence of a super-natural, omnipotent being. Further, I believe that the Gods described by every major religion were invented by humans. As for strictly believing there is no god, it would require super-natural evidence to prove the non-existence of a super-natural being. Therefore, it's a nonsense question. On the whole, this classifies me as an atheist. It requires no faith to believe that a mystic book, and a bunch of people who believe in it, are self-deluded. It is the extraordinary claim that requires extraordinary proof. Asserting the extraordinary claim is most likely not true is not a matter of faith, it should be the default position - especially after the overwhelming lack of evidence.
