Don't they realize atheism has no dogmas, therefore there can't be any fundamentalism? Stop using that word theists, I don't think it means what you think it means! Angry

(specially when talking about Mao Zedong, Stalin and other political leaders who were/are against religion)

no, I don't think you do. "fundementalist" is indepenfant of belief. and caiming "there is no god" is about as dogmatic as one can get. But you keep thinking you understand.

Sometimes it aint the movie, its the projector that has the problem.

If someone were to make the claim "there is no god" and stick to it without providing evidence, then yes, you can call that a fundamentalist belief. However the vast majority of atheists make no such claim, and simply reject what theists claim.
