I love when Christians play lexicographers when it comes to the definition of "atheism" when the only word they really don't seem to understand is "evidence".

Pro tip: It can be found somewhere between the entries for "bullshit" and "imaginary".

Yes, we know that. Won't keep certain christers from calling it a belief though.

Atheism IS a sentence

A sentence to BURN for ETERNITY in HELL!

Just thought I'd beat the nutjobs to it.

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"

So my cat is an atheist? Are rocks atheists? Joke

No.

Rocks believe in superior power.
Rocks much more energy and consciousness than us, even in latent form.

Bet you never think about that, Pizza I'm all ears!
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.

Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.

Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.

Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.

Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

Rocks follow the word of the Rockbiter, even though he eats rocks despite being made of stone making him a cannibal.

Only good rock is Dwayne Johnson.
