1. Is there an organized group of atheists that has a global presence?
I think it just seems like im stretching my imagination to answer this because the question is so vague people have made assumptions about what the definitions of global presence and organised group are.
I look at the question like this, is there an organized group of atheists? id say so. Do they have a global presence? it depends how you define global presence but since i cant even imagine that any organized group out there has a literal global presence im guessing its not a literal term and you mean an organized group that has a presence in one form or another in various countries over the globe. So the answer to the second part would also be yes.
But ill just for the sake of the thread say i took the question too literally and the question does mean is there a global atheist organization that is like a religion. The answer is definitely not.
It would be pretty interesting to see an aggressive atheist society though, i imagine they would say stuff to their kids like "dont be imagining any gods while your out playing today" and "you better have a scientific explanation for that claim you just made"

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
