Maybe I am being a bit semantic with their definition, but when I read 'set of beliefs,' I immediately thought of multiple beliefs. So I guess it boils down to how you define 'atheism,' which I argue is merely the lack of belief and not a belief in and of itself.
Let's set this aside for now, and I'd like you to answer a question for me. Is it possible for a person to not be part of any religion?
