The Sects of Atheism

[Angrboda]

You seem to be under the impression that views on gods necessarily entails specific views on souls and the afterlife.  They do not.  I can be an atheist and believe in the existence of souls and an afterlife.  Some belief systems about gods assume things about gods, souls, and the afterlife.  Belief in the Christian god entails beliefs about souls and the afterlife, but atheism isn't about the Christian god alone.  Atheism in general isn't one of those belief systems and says nothing about souls and the afterlife.

By the way, dictionaries disagree on proper usage, but in general only report how people use a word; they really have no authority to dictate how a word should be used.

You seem to be under the impression that Atheism is a loosely defined word and so far I’ve discovered 3 sects here which I will explain in the end with some more sects that made the news in an official church.
Do you guys even know what you stand for and what you oppose?

"You guys?" Are you expecting us all to believe and think roughly the same way? I've got news for you. Getting atheists to agree on things is like herding cats.

The questions I’m asking relate specifically to religions (Buddhism included) and your definitions are “a lack of belief in gods).

You should have included that information in your question. I am fascinated by religion. Other people may have no interest.

So where are you in this spectrum and the questions I mentioned?

Since your question is related specifically to religions, the answer to your question is that I am religiously unaffiliated. I'll defer on the other questions since I don't believe that you are asking them in good faith.
