Atheists and Creationists are similar., page-9

"Atheist = a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods."
Close, but not close enough.
An atheist holds the view that there is insufficient evidence for the existence of a God or Gods to warrant such a belief. For many atheists this would change if such evidence were forthcoming.

"An Atheist has no universal response to:"
We all accept that everything started quickly
We work hard to have a safe and happy 'future'
We accept that the current universe has a finite life
We care about the wellbeing of others

Really, other than inventing a God can theists invent a response? I doubt it.

"But "accepting the notion of an Intelligent Designer???" If an atheist does not believe in the existence of gods - who would be this designer? Nah"
Do theists know? I doubt it.
Are you assuming there has to be a designer?
