The Middle Road's definitions
The polar opposite of Theism, but with the same amount of blind faith, dogma, brainwashing and lack of thinking.
They slap the burden of proof on Theism to prove that God exists while predictably being completely unable and thus unwilling to prove that God doesn't exist.
If what they believe is true, then the universe is completely without meaning, and so our our lives, the lives of our loved ones, and every action we make, because eventually the Earth and all its inhabitants will no longer exist, all the causes of all our effects will cease to be, and there is noone to judge us. Thus, they have no reason to be good and no reason to have morals, and as a result nobody trusts them with anything - a logical reaction to their way of thinking which, of course, they blame the Church for.
Confront them with facts and logic, and they will either suddenly turn Agnostic or mindlessly slander you, probably after slandering the religious for using slander as a weapon.
Intellectually arrogant hypocrite snobs that have some kind of beef with Theism and are constantly shoving their unimaginably stupid way of thinking down your throat while demonizing Theists for doing the same exact thing.

Man #1: I'm smart, everyone who thinks like me is smart and everyone who thinks differently is stupid - especially those dumbass Christians who have no tolerance for those who think differently and think they know everything.
Man #2: Blatant hypocrisy in the very same sentence? That must be some kind of Atheist record.
