New atheist creed

I call it the "Aractus Creed". 
Aractus Wrote:We believe in the prophet, our apostolic father, Charles Darwin;
Creator of wonder, evolutionary biology, and wonder;
We follow the teachings of the great holy book “Origin of Species”;
We follow the guidance of his disciplinary descendant, Richard Dawkins;
Towards truth, wisdom, discovery, and wonder;
Even though sometimes he can be a giant douche;
We believe in his ways of inductive reasoning and the holy scientific method;
We believe in his teachings written down in the academic journals of Science, Nature, and the Journal of Theoretical Biology;
We believe in the pursuit of Power, Wealth, Wisdom, Knowledge, Happiness, Health, Development, Advancement, and Progress;
We acknowledge the inspired work of secularists;
We strive each day to understand their teaching;
We believe that the Christian god isn’t really real;
And that when we die we don’t go anywhere we just rot in the ground.

Ugh. What is this obsession people have with ascribing so much baggage with a fairly simple term.

Please tell me the OP is intended to be satire.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

What are you guys talking about? I stood at my computer and saluted.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
