Yes, Atheism is a Religion
RE: Yes, Atheism is a Religion
Theism isn't a religion; atheism is a response to theism, the negation of it, thus cannot be a religion either.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Can you be more specific?

You know atheism is a religion. Don't deny.

Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

I think Stimbo just dismissed that, and perfectly.

I'm not going to repeat for you the many other ways that others on this thread have dismissed your wishful canard, which if only it were true would bring us down to your level. If you have a mental health disorder, then you don't improve by pretending other people are crazy as you.

You're being very childish, pretending your little canard hasn't been crushed to dust already on this thread. Is Delicate your sock-puppet?
Mr. Hanky loves you!

HUH?!

Not denying I'm not in a great mood today, but the inane gets annoying after awhile. This is completely different from the people who have no defense for their position, they demonize any source of sensible truth which challenges that, and respond with insulting nonsense which they believe vindicates their wrong ideas because the only people they ever listen to are each other. Sorry, but getting sucked into an echo chamber by trolls can give one a nasty headache after awhile.
Mr. Hanky loves you!

Mr. Hanky, you're relatively new here so I'll cut you some slack. CL is a respected member of these forums. It takes a while to understand her sarcasm. She is by no means a troll. I hope you'll come to see that on your own time. Given the trolls we DO have here, clearly CL could never and would never lower herself to the level of intentionally pissing someone off like that.
