Re: Why don't you consider Atheism a religion? - February 11th 2010, 12:03 AM

Well, I'm not an atheist, just playing the Devil's advocate. I just would like to know why it's important to slap that title on it at all. If they don't want it, fine, kepp it for people who DO want to be considered religious. I think a debate over it is silly, but I'm just trying to get people to see it from that point of view. When I was atheistic, I felt like some one was trying to tell me that I was something I didn't want to be (religious) and I just took offense to that. I think many feel similarly. Just leave atheists alone . However, unfotunately I can't say they'll do the same for you lol.
