'do good unto others' this is a good idea for society, well then you have to classify yourself as a christian what happens then? you adopt all the other beliefs right because they sucked you in with one thing you agree with, what fools you would say, i would say that too.
'i dont believe in a god until there is proof' this is a rational idea so now you have to classify yourself as an atheist and there are many ideas attached to it no different than religion...
it's not that I disagree with either of those statements but why do the sheep of atheism need to call themselves 'atheist'? it's a title, it's a group and there are many ideas attached to it...most are just anti-ideas of religions ideas
"the god delusion" is one example of this and it is no different than the cults of religion
Why can't you just say I am a person who does not believe in god and my definition of reality is progressing as i learn and grow? why do you have to add yourself to the 'atheist' cult?
There is so much you do not know, starting with the very meaning of the words you use. You can't really join the party if you can't communicate better than this.
Why do the sheep of atheism call themselves "atheist"? Atheism describes the position of those who respond in the negative to the question "do you believe in gods?" 'Gods' and the 'supernatural' are so poorly defined that the better response to the question would simply be "what the hell are you talking about?" But, "no, no I don't believe in any gods" is probably more polite.
You seem to suppose that atheism is more than that but you are incorrect. The only reason sites like this exist is because of the prevalence of religious thinking in public discourse and the problems that causes.
Evolution is not a tenet of atheism. Neither is TBBT. These are merely two of the areas of science which have been apposed as fit for instruction in public schools in the U.S. for religious reasons. They have nothing to do with atheism and everything to do with the intrusion of religion into the public realm.
People have been very generous with you. Besides being young, are you disturbed in some way? You should take some deep breaths, go do some reading and then come back -if you even want to- when you've had time to reflect.
