I watched the latest Pete Holmes special on Netflix and it was largely hilarious, but his section around atheism was misguided. I think he (and perhaps many others) have a misconception of what I (and perhaps many atheists) think.
It's not that I believe there definitely isn't any concept of a god or gods or supernatural blob creature outside of space and time that we cannot fathom, it's that the ones we've so fathomed so far are clearly man-made fiction.
I saw the same thing and had a similar thought. A lot of it comes down to a misunderstanding of the vocabulary. Implicit Atheism =/= Explicit Atheism =/= Agnosticism =/= Apathesim. Admittedly there are a lot of folks who say they are Atheists that are really kinda not Atheists at all b.c. they don't understand the words and never bothered to learn.
