Atheism is a religion

[@heist]

If belief systems all fall under one category called religion, then yes, atheism being a belief system can be labelled religion (as is kopimism, the newly inagurated religion in sweden!). But where atheism fails to be a religion is in its lack of closed and closeted ( pun intended) notions about life and its origin. If the linguistic contraptions that theists indulge in to counter religion is to be accepted per se, then an alternative discourse to religion can never be arrived at. The aim is to allow these self indulging theists to twist themselves into shapes that cannot be unravelled even by their own self serving balderdash.
