quote:Argumentum ad ignorantiam means "argument from ignorance." The fallacy occurs when it's argued that something must be true, simply because it hasn't been proved false. Or, equivalently, when it is argued that something must be false because it hasn't been proved true.

This is where weak atheism comes in to play.

So many of atheists are like that, maybe 90% of them.
