The Religion of Atheism

"ON" is a cult

 

water isnt wet
green isnt a color
up is down
left is right

Hell I can match that nutty neoatheist **** all day!

I lack belief in nothing, I'm a theist

 

And a fine job you do, You spend all day long, fu-ked up on your drug of choice, in front of your computer spewing insanity.

 

I lack belief in nothing, I'm a theist

 

I doubt anyone cares what you believe, or don't believe in.

 

Those are two statements in succession, and making those two statements in succession does not demonstrate any relationship between them. Did you intend to fashion a conditional statement?

 

since I am demonstrably correct, it wouldn't make sense to post a different refutation of your claim. Which is why we keep pointing out that atheism, by definition, is not a religion. Just like not playing baseball isn't a sport.

 

Not so;

yer kidding right?

 

I am an atheist, I lack belief.

 

All I am ignoring is the articles you haven't bothered to read. Try reading and understanding the actual court decisions rather than bad interpretations from biased religious sources. There is a reason you cannot quote from the actual decisions to support your position that the courts have found that athiesm is a religion or more specifically that secular humanism is a religion.

And this is not the proper forum for you to post a selfie.

Nope. Did you mean to fashion a conditional statement? Do you know what a conditional statement is?

 

Good to be demonstrably correct if only in your own mind. Suggest you bother to actually read the two law cases your claim depends on.

But I did get a chuckle out of your selfie.

 

I posted that already
too far away to be a selfie.
what you mean you are going to throw your nose up at the Oxford English Dictionary —the supreme arbiter on the usage and meaning of English words,

Atheism Definition Quoted from the supreme arbiter on the usage and meaning of English words the Oxford Dictionary:

Atheism

• the belief that God does not exist.

Besides I am demonstrably correct, it wouldn't make sense to post a different refutation of your claim. Which is why we keep pointing out that atheism, by definition, is not a religion, just like water is not wet.

atheism, by definition, is a religion and is the belief no Gods exist.

More than 100 years in the making, The Oxford English Dictionary is now universally acknowledged as the world's greatest dictionary—the supreme arbiter on the usage and meaning of English words, a fascinating guide to the history and evolution of the language, and one of the greatest works of scholarship ever produced. The Washington Post has written that "no one who reads or writes seriously can be without the OED." Now with the Compact, the world's greatest dictionary is within the reach of anyone who wants one.

 

huh? whats wrong with it?

 

Wow was that irrelevant. Now if the dictionary had said "A religion that believes that God does not exist" it just might actually have supported your contention that athiesm is a religion. Or are you now claiming that all beliefs are religions?

 

Sorry for taking a while to reply, I had a long week.

Well, my point is that Kokomojojo doesn't suggest that we perform some action by which the definition changes, he's suggesting that that's what the word already means. There isn't a problem with a word having much or little information, some words are vague and broad, some are narrow and precise, and that's not a problem.

I think he argues that atheism does share such traits (although I may disagree with him). If we reject the interpretation that you and I recognise, why couldn't every ontology be a cult?

The set {0,1,2,3...oo) is infinite and so is {-10, 0,1,2,3...oo). It seems to me those have the same information, the only difference is that we subjective humans have an easy time understanding the former since it follows a pattern we recognise. I think there is no unambiguous way to quantify how much information is in a statement, so I don't think that's a fruitful way of thinking about the definitions.

 

and I suppose that you dont think its a bit delusional to claim there are not religions that believe God does not exist when we have atheist churches?

Sunday Assembly
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sunday Assembly


The assembly at Conway Hall on 19 October 2014
Formation January 6, 2013; 5 years ago
Founders Sanderson Jones and Pippa Evans
Headquarters London
Location

• UK, Australia, Germany, Ireland, Nertherlands, New Zealand, United States

Sunday Assembly is a non-religious gathering co-founded by Sanderson Jones and Pippa Evans in January 2013 in London, England. The gathering is mostly for non-religious people who want a similar communal experience to a religious church, though religious people are also welcome.

there they are worshiping the great nature god and pretending they arent a religion, but then people will tell themselves anything to create their favorite facade.

they have moral beliefs, mostly stolen from theist religions, so why would they not be a religion since that is most obvious attribute of all religions.

 

They made a social group out of their rejection of religion.

Besides, whatever they do, has no effect on Atheists who just are not interested.
