http://classics.mit.edu/Carus/nature_things.1.i.html

The guy who wrote that would be defined as an atheist by today's standards but he saw it as a religion.

I see it as a poem.

Exactly.
The opposite of Communism is not Communism (it isn't Capitalism)
The opposite of guilty is not guilty (it isn't 'innocent')
The opposite of theism is not theism i.e. atheism (it isn't another religion)

With respect they are false dichotomies. One can have the position that a person is not guilty by simply not agreeing that they are, not necessarily saying that they are not guilty.
