Most atheist would probably use the same phrase that Dawkins uses when questioned: I'm an atheist about god in the same way that I'm an atheist about the tooth

Most atheist would probably use the same phrase that Dawkins uses when questioned:
I'm an atheist about god in the same way that I'm an atheist about the tooth fairy (paraphrasing).
Technically, you can't prove a negative. But in practice...
- MikeCapone 18y agoOh wait, I think I remember it better now.. It's when people tell Dawkins that he shouldn't call himself an atheist, but he should be an 'agnostic' instead because you can't prove that there's no god. And he replies: I'm agnostic about god in the same way I'm an agnostic about the tooth fairy.
