Atheism is an intellectually untenable position. At best an atheist (in the common usage of the word) can only be agnostic. If they make the 'positive claim', 'there is no God', they can only make that argument stick if they are themselves God.
We have a word for people going around calling themselves God, it is called insanity.
Either that person is truly God, or they are not.
Ummm..... what?
