Sorry... No I don't just change around on a whim, however that is what I believe is attributed to being atheist, agnostic and spiritual.
In my mind atheists are angry at God and agnostics are complacent.
I understand that many intelligent people arrive at the conclusion of atheism, but that doesn't make atheism intelligent. Don't get mad at me for pointing it out.
That said, the OP's ultimatum is also not very logical; just because something isn't one thing, doesn't automatically make the opposite true.
Although that's the type of logic that get's armies marching to war. Ie; this country may have attacked us, but can we really afford to take the chance that they didn't?
Hell with that logic you can manipulate to your hearts content, all you need is to instill doubt.
