Yeah none of the atheists hereabouts, or even everywhere else I've ever known, will ever capitalize 'God'. It's a religious thing. You just have to take your best guess. I've yet to find a non believer that actually understands what constitutes the Christian God anyway, so it's probably just as well to assume they aren't talking about this God.

The point is "God" and "god" are defined in the dictionary as two very different things. That's just a fact! We should all at least show some respect for the language otherwise how can we communicate with each other?

You don't communicate. I think that is the problem Zak

To an atheist that's like asking them to poke thier own eyes out. Ain't gonna happen.

Atheism is a dictionary bending religion. Wow.

It certainly seems to be. All its tenets seem to be based on distortions of the language. Even the definition of "Atheism" itself is distorted by them. Here's how the dictionary defines it:

Definition of ATHEISM

1 archaic : ungodliness, wickedness
2 a : a disbelief in the existence of deity b : the doctrine that there is no deity

Atheists reject this definition outright and have their own counterfeit definition. That is linguistic anarchy and terrorism!

I agree with you Zak.

To get started here though your going to have to relax on both of those. Not anything else, just those k?

Drama queen, Zaki, hold on now. The word "atheist" comes from the greek word "atheos". It means quite literally "without gods". Nothing more. Atheists all have differing worldviews.

Please show us examples of an atheist giving their own counterfeit definition. Before you start accusing people of things like "linguistic anarchy and terrorism", I would like to see your evidence behind these accusations.

Please keep in mind that we are atheists (without gods), so typing the word "god" without using capitalization in respect to your specific god is something you're just going to have to get over here in the atheist forums. It is, after all, just a fucking capital letter. I am sure whatever god to which you subscribe (if he/she/it exists) didn't invent the English language, and probably thinks you're more than a little ridiculous for nit picking such trivial little things.

What god do you believe in, anyway?

So are you saying you fully accept the dictionary definition of "Atheism" or not? Yes or no.

Sure.

Define : wickedness

By YOUR definition please

Being "ungodly" aka sans a god is not a crime. That is the core of a-theism is it not??

I have yet to find a definition of atheist/atheism that says "wicked". Please provide your reference. I have provided several references for you from several dictionaries that back up my own statement that atheism is simply a disbelief in gods and the supernatural.
