I'm not sure how an Atheist would view it, since I'm Agnostic myself. I have only read bits and pieces of the Christian bible...and it saddens me how Stephen Harper won't accept gay marriages, not everyone is a Christian! Anyways, that's another story for another thread.
1. Being Agnostic alone is impossible
If you do not have positive belief in the existence of a God you are an Agnostic Atheist.2. Religion is not necessarily a tool. Some if not most genuinely believe it is true, many of those might aslo find utility in religion, but thats beside the point.
