Uhm... the difference between atheism and Atheism is that one is a proper noun. Unless there is an organisation who has the name Atheism, don't call people Atheists instead of atheists. It is nonsensical.

As is their reasoning skills. They give as bad a reputation to unbelievers as Christian Fundamentalists do to most Christians.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
