The Sects of Atheism

[GaryAnderson]

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.

There aren't even different sects of theism. Add whatever religion you like, theism doesn't change. Anyone who believes at least one God or god is really real is a theist, and whether you're a modern Christian or a 13th Century Aztec priest, you're the same kind of theist. Sects are divisions within the same religion, or more broadly, a philosophical or political group. Theism is just one opinion on one topic. Athiesm is the other opinion.

Do you guys even know what you stand for and what you oppose?

As atheists, nothing. One opinion isn't enough to unite us, just like you don't have that much in common with the Aztec priest I mentioned above, who was just as much a theist as you are.

If an “atheist” believes this than they’re not atheists.

Atheist: a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods.

Doesn't say anything about not believing in afterlives, ghosts, reincarnation, or souls; just gods.

Yes I agree with your definition of sects.

Your second point is incorrect because what links you all to each-other is your “lack of belief in Gods” and what links me to an Aztec priest in 500BC is our beliefs in Gods.

Third point : You can’t have an opinion on souls or afterlife which are god-related topics and then claim the definition of an atheist which is “lack of belief in Gods”.

Well think about it. If the dictionary definition of atheism is “lack of belief in Gods” then you shouldn’t have an answer on the existence of souls and afterlife and you didn’t.

My answer was lack of credible evidence for souls and afterlife. Until you (or anyone) can provide some credible evidence souls and afterlife they remain a man made concepts.

 It appears that you're willing to alter peoples responses to fit your agenda and motives.

Lol. Yes my agenda is world domination and it begins in this forum. 😂
Your answer seems like a synonym for “I don’t know” to me and in another topic we can discuss consciousness and how different wiring can make two people interpret objective and non objective reality in different way.
