Which is more logical?

1 Atheist is a label theists put on us. We just do not believe in a god. So the existence of any deity is irrelevant.

2 The "lack of belief" is really agnostic. There is, after all, such a mass of evidence against a god existing and that is what atheists usually take into account.

You just proved in your own post that both are logical, saying that atheism as a 'lack of belief' is similar to black people being a 'lack of color' race. Then you go on to say that black people being a 'lack of color' race is logical, and since you believe the logic behind atheism as a 'lack of belief' is similar to the logic behind the black people analogy, atheism as a 'lack of belief' should also be logical to you.

Also, I want to add that not having something means you also lack something. I do not have an apple in my possession right now, but I can also logically say that I lack an apple in my possession.

Too bad you ignored my argument. Do I really have to spell it out for you? I think I do, and I hate you for making me do it you evil, evil troll.

Lack

Noun: The state of being without or not having enough of something.

"NO thought can go into it if its is a lack of belief."

I don't believe Darth Vader exists but I can speculate about him Dave. Now I know it's all just semantics, but do you really think my lack of belief in Darth Vader is an active belief in itself that I somehow need to maintain? Do you think I go to the "Star Wars is Fiction Church" on Tuesday and chant "it's all not real! I believe I do not believe!" and then some boring old fart reads an online article criticising George Lucas?

If so, your head must be swirling with all the things you don't believe in. Perhaps that's why the next paragraph about "lack of color" race is so bizarre and, well, profoundly stupid. That or you actually think African people are pitch black. I wouldn't put it beyond you. Even "jet black" african people are still just very, very brown, Dave. Only white people in blackface were ever really jet black, and we don't do that anymore.

Your second statement is wrong. Black is not the absence of color it is the opposite, it is the combination of ALL colors. White is the absence of color Go back to the drawing board and saying atheist are lacking belief is implying they are in some kind of denial. Atheism is the believe that there is no god.

You are mistaken in your description. Atheism is a lack of belief in a deity, i.e. a god or gods. It is not just: "lack of belief." Atheists don't believe that any gods exist.

Lack of belief in a concept does not mean that no thought has gone into it. It just doesn't, and from there it falls apart on you.

No, for that to be the case, you would have to specify and limit the definition of "belief" to the conversation. Putting thought into things does not equate to belief. If you are talking to me, use epistemological defaults for the meaning of "belief" and "knowledge", and refer to cognitive science for a definition of "thought".

...and if I did find your question valid on that account, the other problem is that logic is on/off - there are not shades of logic, or something be "more logical" than something else.

I'd say lack of belief makes more sense. Especially since black people aren't even black. They're dark brown, and dark brown is a color.

dude,black IS a color.color spectrum is entirely different from pigmentation and texture.if you do a simple test you'll see that black ink is not just black ink! its a mixture of many colors! the test is called chromatography! check it out...it might reduce the state of moron-ism you are in right now...

atheism IS a lack of belief.thought is not a basis of belief.an opinion is.

get your facts right.and stop making a fool out of yourself...

Oh what a shame.

It seems you completely misunderstood what logic was about.

I do NOT have a belief IN gods.

Sure I have an opinion on gods.

Gods are imaginary.

I hope I wasn't too deep for you :)
