A reality which, in their belief, includes no gods. Or, more commonly,
excludes /one/ God, because as good members of a traditionally
Christian culture, they only know of one God to not believe in.

As I noted in another post, heresies abound here. Either neither or
both are correct depending on how "person" is understood.

Of course, that's assuming one accepts the dogma.

The /best/ way here (IMHO, of course) is to accept the dogma, logic
problem and all. The Apostle Paul did, after all, say that the Gospel
was "nonsense to the Greeks" -- so expecting the core dogmas to "make
sense" is pointless. This is why Christianity is called a /faith/,
which that same Paul defines as "hope in things unseen".
