The Bible is filles with scientific impossibilities.
That does not disprove it.

I'm sorry to say, but you admit that you don't seem know what a scientific proof is.

Yes, but you don't address my point.
You said, that I dont know what atheism is. Your argument for that is that 21% does not constitute most?
True, but that is not my only argument.

Many so-called atheists don't know what they talk about, even if that study didn't exist.
There are a few reasons. Mainly that it is a popular movement and popular movements are often followed by many who are ignorant to its real meaning.

Many declare to know there is no god without evidence.
Saying you know something without evidence is having faith.
And I point out that declaring to be against religion, and following a faith is not knowing what you talk about.

Then what is your argument for me not knowing what atheism is?

I suggest you start reading here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falsifiability

Just because it isn't there doesn't mean you can disprove it.

'Not scientific' is a term someone else came up with, I think it is supposed to mean 'not true'.

To proove there is a talking snake, you would have to find one, or deduct its existence mathematically from something else that is proven.
You can't really prove there is no talking snake. How to do that?
You can argue that it is very unlikely, but you cant proove it.
