*Atheists use circular logic to "disprove" the existence of [[God]].  That is, they presuppose that God does not exist and then argue that all proofs for the existence of God must be flawed because He does not exist.  Christians can use [[presuppositional apologetics]] to break the circle of the atheists' circular reasoning.
