Is Atheism a Religion? Why or why not?
#19
RE: Is Atheism a Religion? Why or why not?
Quote:Ok. But the question is, is it better for humanity at large to be without bread or with bread, per your analogy. That's what we're trying to decide. That's why this isn't just a word game or something. If supposedly being without bread is better, then independent reasons for that need to be given.
Being without bread is justified till the pro-bread side can give a reason to have bread. Being without bread requires no independent reasons to be without bread. So you have not addressed his analogy correctly.

Atheism is (A lack of belief in the theistic claim of gods existence) justified till theism is proven.
