Yes, Atheism is a Religion

As a biased source or someone who is simply mistaken?

Listen, it's clear at this point you have no idea what you're talking about. Inventing bullshit reasons to discredit someone doesn't rule out the fact that what they're saying might be true.

It just exposes the intellectually dishonest charade that is atheism. When atheists can't attack arguments and evidence, they try and attack people instead.

Thankfully the attacks on people don't slide. Cato hasn't managed to substantiate a single claim he's made.

You claimed there is no evidence for God's existence. You've been provided two dozen of them. Now refute them!

Ok, how would you distinguish between biased and mistaken if you don't care enough about the source to investigate?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

I don't know. How do you cope with your debilitating ignorance?

By the way, how do you say there is no evidence for God is you admit you don't care enough about the evidence? You guys are so intellectually dishonest it's mystifying.

I do care about the evidence. It's why I've been trying to get you to justify a renowned non-credible and biased source all along the line.

I've already pointed out the fallacy of the allegation. And pointed out that the allegation hasn't even been substantiated.

So there's no reason to cling to it.

Why cling to it when you have no reason to. Are you afraid of what you'll find if you read the arguments?

Are you afraid that your source can't withstand scrutiny?

Not really. Go ahead and scrutinize!

No, it's just employing brains and critical thinking instead of emotions. When they band together to form what they call an atheist church, you can call it an ideology, still not a religion. Unless you want to call communism, to name only one secular ideology, a religion too. But that's not what most atheists do, since it's mostly about individuality, which can range from left to right to Ayn Rand. So it's bullshit, meeting my expectations, given the OP.

I just wonder why everyone indulges that kind of brainfart.

How come like none of the atheists here know how to use their brain and think critically then?

On close examination, your worldview is a clown penis.
