Did you even read?
I assume so because of "proud of it."

You assume so?
I would give you the old cute adage about how assuming makes an ass of U and ME, but that would be understating how absolutely asinine your assumption is.
Anyone who finds the commercial in question offensive is either an idiot or has deeply rooted issues.

In absolutely no way do you need to be able to answer every single question to reject an idea.
This isn't faith because the credibility of other scientific ideas are not affected by the lack of knowledge in other areas. Science admits that there are things it doesn't know, and it keeps working to figure them out. On the other hand, one of religion's purposes is to explain the unexplainable. If there's something it can't explain (especially regarding something as creation) then it's not doing that right.
Simply not believing something is not the same thing as outright rejecting it's possibilty That's true. I cede to that.

Oh, its you again I'm glad you remember me. My arguments must have been effective enough, yeah?

Faith is believing something without evidence
Science is based on evidence
So no
These two words mean the exact opposite things.
This claim is ridiculous


Atheism does not depend on any scientific claim being true.
Religion requires its claims being true

Look up Deism and see if it fits with you
It's a bit of a conclusion jump, but a lot of times when I see somene say something like your first line, when they elaborate more on what they mean, it fits with deism
Alternatively, you could just elaborate more and I'd tell you

Atheism absolutely relies on faith.
What happened before the Big Bang? When is the beginning of time?

California is a great state.
Secession won't happen because it'll shift everything on a federal level.
Move elsewhere if you want your ass-backwards conservative views to hold more value in an election.

fun fact: the words affect and effect can be used as both nouns and verbs
you can affect someone's life, or you can have a flat affect - meaning a flat tone of voice or inflection.
you can have an effect on something, or you can effect a new law.

Unity works well for mobile and desktop dev in 2D and 3D.

Unity's functional for 2D stuff? Interesting - I've never looked into its 2D capabilities.

forget it I'm getting back into game programming
are there are any fast game libraries/engines for Java? or should I sit down and really take a look at C++ or C#? Which engines have effective porting to mobile platforms?
