Atheism is classified as another religion all over the place. Google it. The reason it is not classified so universally, is that there are atheists who don't seem to know the definition of religion, who want to classify atheism differently.

Cool

You are the only one saying that, why though? Are you trying to insult atheism by calling a religion and if you are, are you not implying that a religion is a bad thing then?

You forgot the part about doing an Internet search to see that I am not the only one saying that.

You forgot the part about checking the complete definitions of the words atheism and religion, so you can see that atheism is a religion by definition.

Cool

So you are saying atheism is a religion and that religions are bad, right?

I think he is saying that atheists are religiously pointing out the logical fallacies in ALL religions.

That is why he is calling it a religion.  In his world view being dedicated to something makes you religious.

His IQ is around 80-85 in my estimation.  He is convinced that the world is 6000 years old so I would not worry that he calls atheism a religion.

The guy is reading from one book; and he did not read it all the way to the end.  If he did, he would be an atheist.



You still don't know how to do an Internet search to see that many people explain how atheism is a religion, right?

You still haven't figured out how to use a good dictionary or encyclopedia to find out that the definition of atheism shows that it is a religion according to the definition of religion, right?

Cool
