I will explain why ..
The very first step to convert to Islam is to say :
There is no God but Allah ...
Atheist said :
There is no God .....
So they are already halfway to Islam ... they only need to complete the sentence .
It's ironic isn't it !!!

No problem ...
Continue ...
There is no gods but .... Allah .
It is the same meaning ...
Dont you know that a singular word could refres to plural word in English Grammar ?
Pay attention :

There is no religion but islam ...
There is no city but New York ...
Religion refres to all religions ?
City refers to all cities ?

Moderator cut: deleted Atheists statement of "there is no god" is just that, you're trying to add something to it that's not there. There would be a UR god before some Allah.

"There is no god but allah" means the same thing as "Thou shalt have no other gods before me."

Only one god. The same god in both cases, really, and atheists don't believe in it. Yep.

Actually alot of atheists are now saying "there are no deities." This is because they are aware that there were/are other religions/beliefs that are not monotheistic like the Abrahamic lines of beliefs.

And your are probably 99.9% atheist. For there are hundreds if not thousands of gods you don't believe in.

Ironic ain't it

More evidence that religion is nothing more than cute catch phrases and word games trying to trick the gullible.

But anyway, disappointment is evidence that you have expectations about the world. You have to teach yourself to let go of those expectations if you expect to escape the continual cycle of death and rebirth you are now stuck in. Desires and expectations lead to suffering, not enlightenment.
