If Atheism is a religion, then sanity is mental illness.

If Atheism is a religion, then abstinence is a form of sexual activity.

If Atheism is a religion, then health is.a disease.

Quote:Atheism is simply the position held by an individual that there exists no God or gods. That's it. End. Nothing more. Nil. Zip. Fin!

Sorry, but I mildly disagree. Atheism literally means only a lack or absence (A-) of belief in gods (-theism.) Lacking belief in something is different than disproof or denial of the remotest possibility of a god hypothesis. I do not believe in gods, demons, little skinny Martians, chupacabras, Big Foot, or yellow dolphins in the Methane seas of Titan.
