Oh but it is a religion. The other religions are people united in the faith of a greater power or diety. Athiesm is just people united in the faith that there is no such thing.

IF I HAVE A RELIGION, THEN EVERYONE IN THE WORLD MUST HAVE A RELIGION TOO, RIGHT?!?!?! RIGHT?!?!?!

While Athiesm is not a religion, it is faith based. Just like a religions says, there is a god, he's like this, and he has this rules and that's what I beleive, Athiests say "There is no god" and that's what I beleive. Athiesm states plainly that there are no dieties whatsoever.

What's more common is Agnosticsm, which says "I dont beleieve in any of the major religions, and I follow no dogma. But I dont discount the possiblity that a god may exist."

The idea of a god is completely outside the realm of science, and can neither be proven nor disproven. So as someone who trusts in science, it is impossible for me to be an Athiest.

Being agnostic is stupid. Why? Well if I told you that 102572945729472986 kajillion years ago I shit out the universe after eating a really spicey space-burrito would you have people that went "ehhh.. I don't believe in any universe-shitting-spicey-space-nacho-eating dudes but it is possible that there may be universe-shitting-spicey-space-nacho-eating SOMETHING out there.."

That's retarded. The proof for something falls to the people proposing the idea. Religion must either be proved or shouldn't be taken seriously at all. There shouldn't even be any people who are like "well.. eh" about it.

Too... many... misconceptions...

Belief does not entail a rejection of the possibility that one could be wrong. Theism and atheism are claism of belief, not knowledge - Meaning, an atheist is likely to say "I believe that no gods exist" rather than "I know that no gods exist." Likewise, it's not uncommon to hear a theist say "I believe that my god exists, but I could be wrong about the whole thing." In fact there's an entire line of Christian apologetics called Pascal's Wager (which is a bullshit argument, but an argument nonetheless) that hinges entirely on the notion of erring on the side of caution in an issue where you could be wrong.

Agnosticism is not "keeping your mind open to possibilities." Agnosticism is the belief that knowledge of the existence of gods cannot be obtained (From the root word "gnosis" - "to know"). It has fuck all to do with what your religious beliefs are - There are both agnostic theists and agnostic atheists. Thomas Huxley, the man who coined the term "agnostic," was a self-described agnostic atheist.

How many times have we heard this lame flawed arguement? You are assuming that the absence of a belief is the same thing as "believing in the absence of a belief".

Fail. You cant divide by zero.

Theism: Belief in god.

Atheism: NO THEISM. No belief in god.

Your example is retarded.
Being unsure as to whether or not there exists a yet unknown force is what we call "reasonable."
Being unsure as to whether or not you shat out the universe is what we call "unreasonable."
Just because you can make up a metaphor doesn't make your argument valid, you blathering cock.

Atheists don't describe themselves as religious.

It's just the simple Xian establishment that requires us to fill out the "religion here" box on surveys.

The gif's just (probably inaccurate) information on who has imaginary friends and who doesn't. Atheists don't. And we're not united in any way whatsoever. We don't hand out pamphlets; we don't leave ill-informed shock-tactic phamplets everywhere; and, we don't base out tactics in government on anything outside of observation, economics, and social theory.

If that means we're not religious, well... fuck yeah.

Guys, I agree the "atheism is faith based" thing is just a troll, but we should actually register a church of atheism, to get all the goddamn tax breaks, legal protections and fucking loopholes all the fucking bible thumpers get

a person having religion implies they have spirituality. athiests have no spirituality as they believe that there is no "magical force" out there guiding us or any such nonsense. just as zero is an absense of quantity, not a quantity itself.
