[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see tons of posts by atheists that state atheists also don’t think there is any world beyond the natural world, ie, the supernatural.

Is that a core tenet of atheism?

It’s confusing because many atheists have posted here that atheism just means no belief in a God or gods. [/quote]

It’s confusing to you, clearly.

The rest of us realize an atheist can think more than one thing.[/quote]

So some atheists don’t believe in the supernatural, and some do? [/quote]

That's not at all what pp said, which I think and hope that you understand.  No atheist believes in the supernatural.  [/quote]

Then atheism is more than just no belief in God/gods, because God/gods are not the total of the supernatural world.

So atheism-despite protestations-is no belief in God/gods, and no belief in the supernatural world. Supernatural weans anything beyond the natural world.

Why the confusion? Are atheists not allowed to admit they don’t believe in the supernatural? [/quote]
