They are not atheists in the way that babies are atheists. And adult atheists have very good reasons to be atheists. They hear claims and evaluate them, and are therefore thinking adult atheists. If they heard the claims and accepted them, they would not be atheists any more.That is rejection of subsequent (faction/religion) doctrine. Adult atheists are not disbelieving because of unexplainable physiological aspects.

Dogma involves something that isn't questioned, and we hope, anyway, that atheist standards of evaluation are derived from better sources.I think you are misunderstanding my title. I meant to describe the definitions of the words significant to atheists discussions as being used incorrectly, and that that forms atheist dogma.

I am suggesting that it is identically to "unbiased." The popular description that atheists use suggests that it is identically to "non-religious."

I believe that I am the most important person in the world. I am delivering the formula for standardizing knowledge classification: A derivative of the formula aids in the organization of corporate charters - government. The three-part theory is improperly deployed, basically, because the government should be divided into six parts in alignment with the six main partitions of civil law. The founders and subsequent generations just didn't have all of the information for organizing a better, more accurate, system.
And your belief that the founders got it right is dogma.
Maybe you are...in your sad little world.
