Atheism IS a religion

It’s just a false religion

Atheism has: An easily disprovable Creation mythology, Tenants, a belief on what happens after you die, and beliefs on what to do as a result.

Atheism is the most religious religion out there.

Atheism has none of those things. Atheism is simply the rejection of a single idea: that a god or gods exist.

There is no mythology. There are no tenants. There is no belief about what happens after you die.

Everything you have said is projection, what you believe as opposed to asking an actual atheist (right here) what he believes.

Atheism has a scientifically invalid creation myth: that for a moment all known laws of nature stopped working and this somehow results in an ordered universe.

Atheism has tenants: one must not believe in forces outside the natural law and physically observable universe.

Atheism has a belief on what happens after you die: that is an absence of any former existence or as some other religions call it "annihilation".

Atheism has the proposed course of action for believing these things: not being nihilists, they believe that existence must be worked towards the limited happiness available.

If you are an agnostic so be it, but I stand by my claim that Atheism is a religion and that a lack of concern about theological truth is not religious.

Atheism has no myths. It has no dogma. Atheism, itself, adheres to no afterlife claims or beliefs.

Atheism is simply "I don't believe you when you say a god or gods exist." Belief being "I accept this proposition to be true," and lack of belief being "I do not accept this proposition to be true."

Agnostic is something else, entirely. Agnostic means "without knowledge." Thus, you can be an agnostic atheist, but also one can be an agnostic theist. The former is "I don't accept the proposition that a god or gods exist, and I don't know for certain," the latter is "I accept that a god or gods exist, and I claim to know for certain."

You may rant and object and project all you like. but please realize that everything you have claimed is what you believe. Not what an actual atheist (yours truly) believes.
