Should the term Atheist be scrapped?

I am inclined to think that the majority of people everywhere are Humanists. Atheists seem to be a bit more vocal without having an agenda.

Yeah, I chose atheist over humanist, as humanism is to me more a philosophical position and I prefer my philsophy to be by own. My agenda is very simple, to have people listen to what I actually think and not judge me on what they believe I think, hence my dislike of dual definitions.

"Catholic," "Baptist," "Pentecostal," "Episcopal," etc. To echo Min's response to this, they believe the same things albeit with minor cosmetic differences. Religion is notoriously exclusionist; among other things, they hate each other because they're far too similar for comfort.
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.'
