Catholics are just a branch of the many different Christians. Oh, oops. You don't have Theology for 2yrs. and everything goes out the window. My bad.

Don't you agree, Zach? Posts: 5,078 Group: Former Staff Member #11,349 Joined: October 23, 2008 Coins 3	MFreak Nov 18 2009, 02:46 PM Picklegod Nov 18 2009, 01:08 PM Well, since I consider Atheism a religion In the words of some guy I saw on youtube "Atheism is a religion like not collecting stamps is a hobby." If a general definition of religion is that it's a set of beliefs concerning deities, then why wouldn't Atheism be a religion? Granted, there are several different views on the definition of religion. It all really depends on how you define religion. As a side note, I believe the U.S. legally treats Atheism as a religion.

Atheism has no deities at all (Agnosticism doesn't either but that thinks there may be one out there so that's debatable), so you can't really call it a religion.

It's the absence of belief, not the belief in absence. Also there are no godly rules or laws or organization or whatever. No, Science doesn't count. Also, to answer the OP, to hell with it. I'm going to start worshiping Ra and his posse of gods just so I can get into heated debates with people who don't worship them. IE, everyone. It'll be fun.

The term Atheism only means you don't believe in god. Atheists can beleave in the devil, Atheists can beleave in an afterlife, Atheists can beleave in a flying unicorn that grants wishes to all who eat yellow food. In the end though, most Atheists do infact not beleave in any of the other dressings most religions have (ie an afterlife or an antigod).

Atheists can beleave in the devil, Atheists can beleave in an afterlife, Atheists can beleave in a flying unicorn that grants wishes to all who eat yellow food. Although the word's etymological origin is the Greek word 'aetheos' ('without god'), I'd say that the modern definition of atheism is a rational denial of the supernatural and mythological in general.
