[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So do atheists with high desire for "meaning" have more propensity to believe in or wish for extraterrestrial intelligence and UFOs? This WashPo opinion writer thinks so. It's a desire for "meaning" he says.

Discuss.

Atheists are capable of all kinds of ideas, including believing in some stupid sh*t.  Like the Raelians, for example.

Atheism is simply the position of not believing in a god or gods.  Everything else is unrelated.[/quote]

Not to nitpick but some atheists believe there is no god which is different than not believing in god. While they are both atheist the 2 different beliefs are very different.

Atheists are multifaceted just like Christians are. [/quote]

Nitpick all you want, no problem here.  Especially since we don't appear to disagree. The definition of atheism "a-theism", is not believing in a god.  You can also believe there isn't one (and I believe there most likely isn't one as I define god) , but very few actual atheists claim they can prove that, especially without a vivid definition of the god.[/quote]
