Atheists are not a monolith, and just because some atheists claim that it's all about the belief in god and nothing else doesn't make it so

When you press any self-professed atheist on whether the supernatural exists or not, and if they say "yes it does", and you ask them to prove it, they'll all admit "I can't"
If you keep pressing, then this is the point where they start to relativize their belief in the supernatural, because they experience what is known as "cognitive dissonance", which is the discomfort felt by someone from the realization that they hold two conflicting beliefs.
1) I believe the supernatural exists
2) I don't believe God exists
The reason why those believes are conflicting is because it makes no rational sense to believe one, but not the other. If you believe in the supernatural then you must also at least be open to the idea that God also exists, because from a purely logical, reasoned point of view there's no difference between those two. If the supernatural exists, then it must also be possible that God exists, and there's no logical reason to say that "God does not exist"
Hence agnostic atheists sprung into existence, who say "I don't believe in God, but I can't prove that he doesn't exist". The reason this happen is, as explained, the self-professed atheists who do believe in the supernatural couldn't argue their way around the described problem.

This is when the atheist camp split. It split into those who argued that their peers who believe in the supernatural are just inconsistent in their reasoning, to which I fully agree.

Shock and horror, not all atheists agree with each other

so you're saying that atheists can believe in the supernatural?

No, I'm saying they're liars

you're so adorable

It's impossible for an atheist to believe in the supernatural, because it's completely inconsistent with the foundation of atheist thought

you're conflating Atheist with Materialist

Either they
A) believe in the supernatural
B) are atheists
Noth both

What?

Atheist = there is no god
Materialist = there is no spiritual/supernatural

And?

How many more times do I need to explain this

Atheists who claim they believe in the supernatural are not atheists

They're liars

please, do me a favor

go find the nearest university

Do you know the definition of "supernatural"?

because your level of stupidity needs to be studied

because it honestly borders on the supernatural

Explain to me what "supernatural" means

I think honestly you are evidence of a godlike power

Are you going to dodge the question?=

because natural selection should have eliminated you by now

So you're going to dodge the question then?

not at all

Go ahead then

something supernatural is something that defies our understanding of the natural world

this can be because we don't understand it yet

No, not true

but if we observed something like a ghost or spirit it would be "supernatural"

beyond the natural order

Wrong

Ghost sightings belong in the realm of the paranormal, not the supernatural

I explained this in great length in the last debate I had with whiic

The supernatural is an event or thing that is *impossible* to be explained using natural means

Literally impossible, you can't explain it no matter what

The paranormal however can be explained

This is why it's in the Christian teaching that trying to explain God is blasphemy
