Atheism is the belief that God does not exist. This belief is expressly different than an agnostic, who is not sure if there is a God.
Agnosticism, to me is an honest position from a humble person. But Atheism, is a position of arrogance from a person who has deceived themselves. The Atheistic position is fundamentally flawed and all apologetic arguments with an Atheist should begin at these fundamental points:
1. For a person to state that there is no God, must first arrive at the conclusion that they have sufficient knowledge which would allow them to arrive to the conclusion that there is no God. Of course, the amount of knowledge required to make such an arrogant statement would be infinite. An Atheist basically must convince themselves that they have infinite knowledge concerning the universe, and by stating that he is an Atheist has essentially stated that they possess that infinite knowledge.
2. If a person has arrived at the above conclusion, that person has already defeated his own argument; and here’s why. For anyone to claim infinite knowledge of the universe, they in fact would BE GOD. An Atheist, by claiming that there is no God, has essentially placed themselves in the position of God… and their own argument asserts that there IS a God, and that God is themselves.
Of course, we know that no finite carnal person can possess infinite knowledge of the universe… so we know that no human being can be the infinite God. Humans are not omniscient, omnipresent, or omnipotent; so no human being can claim infinite knowledge of the universe… and no human being is in a position to claim that there is no God.
