You know Unicorns might exist (has they are mentioned 12 times in the Bible). There's no proof towards the existence of Unicorns. No fossil records. Nothing in nature would allow anyone to believe that they actually roamed the earth. Nothing in the evolution of horses that would got us believing that one of it,s kind can grow a horn. But since it's mention in some myths, man made accounts from medieval time, i guess not believing in Unicorns requires faith.
Atheism does not requires faith. Atheist say, well theist, there's no proof around that would have me believing in your claims. Hence, i will not take your God theory very seriously. No chemist believe in the theories of alchemy, because there's absolutely nothing that can back it up. It doesnt take faith to not believe in alchemy.
There's something broken in your post with that unicorn stories from myths and faith and then ignoring the myth part about religion with that Moses miracle stuff with the parting of the sea, egypt and the seven plagues, speaking shrubbery, Jesus healing the lame and the blind, walking on water and whatever other miracles supposedly happened. Also, what's the technical term for the "I-do-not-care" faith?
I'm not ignoring those parts mate, in fact the example was to expose just that.....

Having just browsed through the ~450 page Korea vs World LR thread (obviously not page by page) I have to say SOTG serves a very important role in the sense that it's pretty much the best place to find all latest happenings condensed in a single place where everything important is discussed in a way that shows what the key things were this week.
I mean, with all the things going on and the sheer size of the community it's almost impossible to get a good sense of all the major upsets and key things that took place this week by just browsing the threads and going through everything in written format. Even 10 pages worth of "OMOGMG WHITERAAAAAAAAA" praise gets easily lost within some 9000 post thread so afterwards it's sometimes difficult to catch all those epic moments in the forum.
So I think it's so cool to actually hear pros talking about the events, tournaments, drama, patches etc in discussion format and hearing their views and what they emphasize the most as the key things that they found most exciting this week.
Of course TL also has the weeklies but IMO State of the Game is the best at wrapping it all up in one fun and interesting show in a very user-friendly format.
Keep up the good work guys!

When I would ask an Agnost, "do unicorns exist?", or "does a giant invisible purple umbrella orbit the planet Saturn?" they will say "No, don't be silly!".
Isn't it weird how these analogies always involve invisible, purple unicorns in space (or something along those lines, but always purple, invisible and in space)? No less absurd than magic, bearded, sky-bullies or wish-granting, zombie carpenters, but why invisible, purple unicorns in space? Are My Little Ponies in league with the Romulan Empire?

Possibly "nontheist". I've also heard "igtheist" for someone who just can't figure out what religious
people are going on about.
Hey, how about that White-Ra game, eh?

I love how this thread is perpetually derailed. Restaurant etiquette? How to define atheism? what will you guys come up with next?

Actually 'Agnostic' or 'Agnosticism' would be the one you are looking for!

wait, what?

This is going to be one of our most difficult shows I think! So much to talk about. Honestly I think NASL needs no more than about 5 minutes at this point. Reviews let us put our expertise to work infinitely better than previews. And we have so much to review this week. NASL's 16 man finals will be much more deserving of a preview than divisional play, so I think we can hold off on previewing NASL for a while, and only do reviews on NASL week-by-week for divisional play.
TSL I really want to talk about all 8 matches from this weekend. Some of them more than others. But I think all 8 deserve at least 1-2 mins of time on a ~3 hour show.
GSTL and Korea vs World have provided some interesting matches to discuss. And also a little discussion on how incredibly exciting winners league is warranted (by winners league I mean these team vs team matches where you play 1v1's one at a time and winner stays. it's called winners league for sc:bw, distinguished from proleague which is also team vs team but features a predetermined lineup for 4 matches and then an ace match if necessary. also, winners league format = team battle. proleague format = clanwar. just more terminology)
Yes to all of this. NASL's lineup looks fantastic. Maybe spend 5 minutes on "snubs" if you want to, but there'll be plenty to talk about there once matches start. Same with MLG. We'll get plenty on that next week, I'm sure. I'm more interested in thoughts about TSL and the GSL World Championship matches we've been watching. Those have been exciting as hell. Plus, Tyler needs to gloat about being the only one to give Addelscott a chance vs. MVP.
Edit: got matches mixed up in my head!

Lots to talk about in SoTG tonight, NASL players, Coin toss tourney, WC vs Korea, TSL, Ladder reset, looking forward to MLG Dallas, and so on.

Agnosticism doesn't necessarily mean that you don't care, it just says that you don't know.
On other news this is the SOTG thread, so i hope they talk about Idra/Cruncher game and give a thorough analysis.
