[Serious] Atheist Dogma

[Belacqua]

So, an agnostic has to be aware of the possible options, and reserve opinion; where as, an atheist does not have to be aware of any options???

Some people here are adamant in their Lackism. For them, anything that lacks belief in God is atheist, including inanimate objects which are incapable of belief in anything. I think this is not helpful.

It's just getting absurd how you are bending descriptions and not considering the possibility that you need a full list of the related terms, and they all have to be reviewed and classified to assure that all aspects of the possible relationships are accounted for.

I agree that if we want to improve our understanding, and even perhaps come to some sort of agreement, agreeing on definitions would be useful. It is clarifying to see how people use the words differently. 

That is what science would do - and you are no where near doing that.

Granted, scientists need precise definitions in their work. Philosophers work to clarify our word usage as well, though they have to admit that natural language can't be as precise as math.

I think we could all improve our understanding of these issues if we were less interested in insulting and overwhelming everyone who disagrees even a little.
