Atheism is surely no religion but we include every division you can find in the general population. There isn't an orthodoxy.
Among those of us who answer no to the do-you-believe-in-gods-question, you'll find: those who think the question makes no sense; those who don't care; those who know damn well what you're talking about and think you're nuts to ask; those who think religion is holding us back and should be eradicated; those who are neutral regarding what 'one ought to believe' but don't personally; and some who think gods have only a psychological, literary or poetic reality. We are one house, infinitely divisible, with just one life and self-determination for all.
