One can value something but not worship it .And no specific characteristic is a being to be worshipped . Again you prove how dense you are .
Oh and no the choice is not worship or self or something "higher" I can choose to worship neither
And no no I give two shits what the big book of fairytales defines values as I value things . I worship nothing .

Atheism is the non acceptance of a specific truth claim with regard to the existence of metaphysical or supernatural beings
Even were the truth claim in question demonstrably true it would not involve circular reasoning and so that charge is false
Also to say it is impossible to be an atheist is to say that one has zero free will in rejecting the aforementioned truth claim
I most certainly reject that truth claim as does nearly every one who is a member of this forum so this charge is also false
The discipline I hold in the highest regard is mathematics. I consider it to be so perfect that it could not possibly have been invented by human beings. So I think it was discovered. The laws
of physics are written in mathematical form and it can be used to describe the behaviour of any phenomena or physical object in the entire universe with total accuracy. No other language is
as pure and beautiful and universal as mathematics but even for something as profound as this I will not allow myself to worship. So instead acknowledge its remarkable usefulness as a tool
for understanding. To worship it would be unnecessary and a surrender of my free will. So if I can avoid worshipping that which I find so pure and beautiful I can avoid worshipping anything

You've just proved you're a mindless spewer of bullshit. But you did that a while back.

Then you have weakened the word god to the point where both the concept and discussion about it are completely meaningless. Your faith must really be on its last legs if you have to disembowel it just for a feelgood "gotcha" moment on an atheist forum. I have to ask again, whom are you trying to convince, us or yourself?
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.'

The theist no matter the religion is always trying to convince themselves. If any club had the right one and could prove it the world would not have all the clubs and claims we do.

No, he's got a dumb phone and he's filtering all his posts through it.

I am an atheist, therefore atheists exist, you fail.
I have yet to see any convincing, testable evidence of any gods, please come back when you have some.
