Thor Wrote:...If we go by your argument, a chess club could be called a "religion"...There are no deities involved in chess. But there are in atheism. Atheists spend half their time unworshiping God, and other gods. They don't just 'not believe in God,' they unbelieve. The difference between 'not believing' and 'unbelieving' is that the latter requires a frequent assertion or thought that one doesn't believe. Atheists probably talk about God more than the average believer. So there is definitely a God, or gods, involved in atheism.
I'll use the Santa Claus analogy which atheists love to use so much. I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I don't have to constantly repeat that I don't believe in Santa Claus. People who don't believe in Santa Claus don't have to join forums for Santa non-believers. Catch my drift? The atheist religion is one where people share common beliefs, and spend a lot of time unworshiping (or maligning) God.
