My coffee is atheist according to that definition. It is also without milk. Does that make it "Amilkist?"

Puta que pariu! Tu és lento e idiota!!


a·the·ist
[ey-thee-ist] Show IPA
noun
a person who denies or disbelieves the existence of a supreme being or beings.


Notice how the definition starts with "a person". It's not "a thing". It's not "any thing"... It's "a person".
