Should there be Atheist groups?

[josef rosenkranz]

Possibly because ghosts, aliens, salmon, don't affect our daily lives as much as religion. You could probably associate belief in ghosts loosely with spiritualism, the opposite being naturalism. Not sure about what you would call believers in aliens. I know there are people called raelians who believe that aliens brought humans to Earth. The opposite of raelian is "sensible".

There is a major difference between believers in destiny or religious superstitions and believers in ghosts or aliens or salmon orbiting Jupiter ,etc,,
It is a welcomed threat to present philosophic matters in a houmorous way but seriuosly if you judge the importance of a certain issue related to a large number of elements,you have to take into account the statistical weight of it.
I am convinced that believers in fate are perhaps more numerous in the Western world then believers in God.
A lot of people who abandoned the practice of Christianism or Judaism or Islam and see themselves as free thinkers ,in time of distress of themselves or of others will draw out a residual belief in supranatural and will put the blame on Destiny or Fate ,whatever it means.
The same goes for religious superstitions which are benefitting from the belief that "if it does not help ,it does not harm either".
From a statistic point of view the wheight of believers in fate or in
religious superstitions is by far ,incomparable bigger then the wheight of believers in ghost or in other silly things ,making them irrelevant at all.

So ,to my opinion a definition of an atheist should be as one "who does not believe in God as well as in other supranatural elements colateral to religions".
