If you want to be known as an atheist...use the designation.

Stop trying to deem everyone who does not "believe" a god exists...an atheist.

As I mentioned earlier...Einstein, Hawking, Sagan, Tyson...all do not "believe" any gods exist...and they all said they were not atheists.

I know, I know...you people would like agnostics and other non-theists to be counted as atheists. 

Tough.

We are not.

Aha...now I see where our major difference lies.

You apparently think I give a shit what you call "bullshit" on.

Okay.

Kinda cute.

I smiled.

Your personal contention with the established definition of a particular word isn’t a problem for atheists or the atheist community. It’s mostly just a problem for you. I’m sorry for the apparent angst this is causing you, but you’re in the wrong place for help.

You may leverage further complaints here:

No angst for me on this. I love the give and take.

And I understand. I know how much you people want me to be one of you...so you can claim that this (pointing at me) is what atheism is.

Sorry, but no sale.

Try to deal with the rejection with a bit more class. You can fake it!
