And furthermore on the matter of just ditching the word and offering no replacement...

..I also think it's kind of pretentious and a bit snobbish perhaps to be like "Oh...well I MAY be an Atheist by DEFINITION but I just don't like to CALL myself an atheist because I don't like to LABEL myself as one".

Kind of like a "I'm above that" sort of thing, meh.

Pfft.
