I love that argument that theists use that atheism is basically just a religion. Just Google the definition already.
Actually, I will do it for you.
Atheism: disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods.
I fail to see how atheists can even be thrown into the same category. We have no religious text, leaders, gathering areas, or anything like that. Sure, some organizations exist that have atheist members, and there are prominent scientists and authors that help people learn about atheism. But that is not the same as believing the word of the Pope, a pastor, preacher, father, or anyone else as the words of a god. Just saying.
