I stated there were many denominations of atheism, non-belief, etc. Wasn't trying to be argumentative, but some take offense with Atheism being paralleled to religion in any context; such as using words that are associated with...gasp....religion. Although atheism is a worldview, so says me.
Atheists forming different organizations does not make them a religion.
Prove it is. Show us our holy book. Show us our holy founder. Show us our super natural heros you think we worship.
It isn't even a "worldview". We are NOT even a worldview. We have various views on politics and economics. Again, we are not monochromatic and we are not sheep. WE ARE NOT A RELIGION OR WORLDVIEW. You should know that by now having seen our infighting even on this page.
Get this through your head Pete, the only thing "atheist" denotes is the INDIVIDUAL's "off" position on god claims. Outside that we do not agree on all things all the time.
