I never denied the possibility, I denied we should believe in those things

it sounds incredibly arrogant to me to assume you know something without evidence

Arrogance comes into play when one person asserts their beliefs over another’s.

They weren’t stating that you should believe in god.

You were stating that they shouldn’t.

Yes, they shouldn't because they have no evidence and are therefore arrogantly asserting something they have no reason to believe

You see someone holding a belief you don’t agree with as arrogant, but not your unwanted criticism of it? Forget arrogance. You may be a narcissist.

Yes, belief without evidence is peak narcissism in my eyes

it is the definition of delusion
