The problem with Yahtzee is sometimes even if he liked the game, it's hard to tell what he actually liked about it.
Plus he talks too fast for little old me.
But I still watch em!

Yahtzee's an atheist. I guess it makes sense.
He thinks he knows everything!
When someone says they are atheist I wonder how they think they know for certain.
I'm apathetic agnostic. Our moto is 'We don't know and we don't care'
Woot...

QFT to that. There's an Einstein quote somewhere about that.

I'm as certain in my atheism as, say, any devout catholic is with their faith

I was at a family dinner once and we were discussing it, and I mentioned I was atheist and asked one of my family if they were too. They said they were agnostic and I asked what it meant. They said it means they can't possibly know with certainty, so they don't even bother claiming to know. I labeled myself an agnostic after that because I realized that it's actually what I was.
All I'm willing to believe is that there is no rational definition of god, and that if there were one, I see no evidence of it having any relevance.

Because the existence of a divine being makes no sense and all arguments for religion we have heard are quite illogical.

I only meant it seems more reasonable to say "I don't know", "highly unlikely", or "I've seen no evidence to rationalize it" rather than say "I definitely know for certain".
Extreme atheists somehow believe they know for certain there can be no possibility of higher intelligence having a hand in anything, which I found odd, considering the duration of our existence in the universe and knowledge of it is so incredibly small.
This universe could have been created by incredibly advanced lifeforms from another plane of existence for all I know. I feel it's unlikely, but I'm not going to say I know for sure it wasn't.

Well, we can all agree on that by just playing RA/AB or standing in GToB.
Until it is proven a god exists (a book written by humans is not a proof of existence), then I remain a non-believer... and if he is proven to exist, I still reserve the right to refuse to believe in every of his words unless they fit with my morality codex.
In the end I would lable myself a realist in that sence. I believe in what I can logically comprehend and test using experience an/or knowledge.

Einstein was a realist too. He thought the idea of a divine being interacting with humanity was foolish, but he got angry when people assumed he was atheist because of that.
He knew enough to know that he couldn't know what a god could be, but he was adamant a god isn't what religion portrays. He was admittedly agnostic.

Hey Redfeather,
aren't you an author of some oblivion mods or texture overhauls/improvements?

Naw that's Rhedd. I thought the exact same thing, though.
That said, Yahtzee is awesome. The billions of people who are attempting to copy him and using some of his quotes are not : (

Rhedd made Morrowind mods and possibly Oblivion mods too.
I helped with some Oblivion mods and made tutorials. You might see my name in some mods thanks section. I never would have bothered with Oblivion modding if I'd never seen Rhedd's heads before. It's why I named my GW character after him. I only bothered with Nif editing and normal map creation.
Fun fact!
My GW character is named Hadrian Rhedd. I did that on purpose.
Rhedd's moa bird is named Redfeather. That was an eerie coincidence.
