What part of atheism is the religion?
I can see how using religious laws to protect our lack of belief is smart but then companies in the US legally have the same rights as people, do you think companies are people?
You are "Nones", which sounds like "Nuns", but is something else.
National Geographic even did a story on it - The World's Newest Major Religion: No Religion
So maybe technically atheism isn't your religion, but rather you being "Nones" are the religion and atheism is just your leaning towards that religion. Kinda like a religious denomination. That's good for you since that's what you all wanted. In Dec 2016, you were even included in the International Religious Freedom Act. So it looks like you got a nice parting gift from Obama when he granted you your request. Congratulations.

Quote: Of course it was the atheist that demanded it, and wanted religious protections.Wanting freedom from religion is not the same as wanting to be a religion and "the atheists" didn't ask for anything A GROUP of atheist did .
Quote:Throw in the atheist mega churches, hymns, and whatever else and "practicing atheism" is a full blown religion.Nope the atheist church is a cult it has nothing to do with Atheism sorry
Quote: If you beg for it and get it, you should own it.Lol see the above
Quote:The rest also apparently went over your head. Darwin impacted it indirectly because the concepts were misinterpreted and applied in a different manner, but it was clearly a driving force due to the ideology.Nope it wasn't Darwin as i pointed out already
Quote:I don't think it would be fair for anybody to blame Darwin, no more than saying television makes someone kill someone, but we can still pick up ideas from such things.Too bad their no relation of idea's as i showed clearly above the Nazi's did get their idea's from Darwin
There are lots of atheist cults. So I don't see the relevance. It just makes you religious all the more. Why is your version better than their version? What makes it anymore authentic?
