Coming from your perspective, it would probably be better to say "it is not correct to lack belief in deities."
Though you will have to provide evidence for this assertion, which is a whole other matter.
Most atheists don't assert "There is no god" with 100% certainty. They just find probability for such a thing very low, and no evidence for a belief in such things.
Atheism is a lack of belief in all deities. So if anything, you should say their lack of belief is incorrect.
But I'm not sure how easily you could critique a non-belief, considering that you must compare it to what you perceive as a superior alternative. Instead, you should provide evidence for your own belief system. Let's be clear: You're not saying that atheists are incorrect for not believing in Thor, Zeus, or Allah. You're saying they are incorrect for not believing in your version of Christianity and its claims against evolution or an old universe. So you will need evidence to make your case, not simply stating that we are "incorrect."
As for evolution and the big bang, people of all persuasions have provided evidence for their assertions. So you will either need to change your argument to accommodate or to provide an alternative equally based in evidence. What's the chance you will do either? Nill.

Thinking you were incorrect as an atheist doesn't mean you were wrong then. All you have established is your own capacity to be incorrect. What has been established is that there are no correct Creationists. The few honest ones admit they have nothing but belief.

Yes? I don't know. I do know if there was proof that God existed all us atheists would put our hands up and say "OK I was wrong". If there was undeniable proof that God does NOT exist, Christians wouldn't be so humble. They'd still believe and make excuses for themselves.
So it might be more accurate to say there are no DELUDED atheists.

It would be more accurate for me to say that an atheist's belief is better than that of a religious person. Allow me to explain, a man lives and dies for humanity ...and that's it. Enjoy what you can, right? A religious man on the other hand, devotes his entire lifetime to God and when he dies, he gets to spend the rest of eternity as a servant to God. Hell, I couldn't even be a waitress for a week....servant for life my ...AS if... lol

Okay, well, that's different. If you disagree with that position, that's one thing, but there shouldn't be any doubt that some people actually do feel that way, whether you think they're right or wrong about it.

You almost broke out in a sense of humour there.
Very nice to see for a change, CL.

I don't know. I'd have to know what you're insinuating to be less accurate. It would, however, be MOST accurate to say that there are atheists. Simple as that. *wink*

Show me a man who has never sinned and I will show you a God who was made a man. Show me a man that has sinned and has lived a hard life, I will show you a God who will accend further from teaching, than by not doing.

It might be. However, it would be inn accurate to say that there are no correct agnostics.
