(May 26, 2017 at 6:45 pm)ComradeMeow Wrote: A lot of this has to do with the fact that what we call atheists are just metaphysical naturalists. Atheism is a VERY bloated word that means a lot more than what it sounds and at the same time means less than what it sounds.

For example, try spotting the actual definition versus the bloated definitions:

*A person who does not believe in a deity's existence.

* a person who believes there is no god. Is very immoral because he/she wants to be and lives a depraved life.

*A person who knows there is a god yet denies him. Is a liberal or some sort of communist who wishes to destroy American and makes us all gay.

An atheist is someone who is not a theist.

If it appears bloated, that's cause theism is a well-bloated carcass in itself
