I have been told by countless atheist that they have a "Belief" there is no God...is there any evidence to this" belief"?
Websters: A Belief there is no God.

Most atheists I talk to say that their proof that God doesn't exist is that there is no proof that He exists. Sucks for them if they're wrong!

Like all dictionaries that one was written by Christians, and many even give a definition that is insulting. It is not a belief there is no god, is it a dis-belief in any. Lack of. Big difference. To say that we only 'believe' there to be none would be to imply that we have doubt. And that would make us agnostic. Atheist is the LACK of belief.

Well, I'll tell you this, there is pretty much the same evidence for atheism as there is for the existence of a God. In the end, nobody could ever tell you that it is for sure that a deity or randomness brought upon the universe as we see it today.

No. And there never will be because you can't prove a negative. In order to produce a strong logical argument for Atheism you would have to prove that the existence of a God or Gods is absurd.

Atheism doesn't have beliefs... really they simply deny everyone elses beliefs... I am personally a follower of christ so I dunno if I am quite the person you are looking for but i feel comppelled to ask you to find your own answer.... whether that be God or atheism.... When in doubt pray.... Asketh and you shall recievith.... I know you might blow this off man, but before you do anything rash, pray... just try it... if you don't find the help you need then... I won't ask anything else of you lol... good luck bro

It's no belief in God !...belief plays no a part in atheism, atheists do not share the theists belief in God.....that's it!
"The list of things about which we strictly have to be agnostic doesn't stop at tooth fairies and celestial teapots. It is infinite. If you want to believe in a particular one of them -- teapots, unicorns, or tooth fairies, Thor or Yahweh -- the onus is on you to say why you believe in it. The onus is not on the rest of us to say why we do not. We who are atheists are also a-fairyists, a-teapotists, and a-unicornists, but we don't' have to bother saying so." (quote Richard Dawkins.)

What? To have a belief is to not be an Atheist.

Uh, the majority of athiests are implicit atheists, who simply don't believe in God, rather than assert there is not one.
Websters is not exactly accurate, might I point out. Google 'definition of atheism' and you'll find definitions that atheists themselves use.
In effect, you are trying to tell people they believe things they don't.
