Atheism is a Religion

When atheists rail attack theists, they are using the same fervor that the religious use when making their claims against a secular society only in reverse.. I have found that the angriest of atheists can be as religiously insane as a group of Westboro Baptists at a veteran’s funeral or Muslims screaming "Sharia for U.S.A.!" A definition of religion proposed by Clifford Geertz, defined it as a "cultural system". -"A critique of Geertz's model by Talal Asad categorized religion as "an anthropological category", saying many religions have narratives, traditions, that are intended to give meaning to life OR to explain the origin of life or the universe." https://en.m.wikipedia.org... * Typically, in my debates with Atheists, They will try to give explanations as to how things originated, whether it be Darwinian Evolution, the so called "Quantum field", Abiogenesis, etc. They are attempting to answer how it all began in an attempt to devalidate "God" as that answer. I've always found it to be a perculiar thing, the Atheist's attempt to prove God does not exist to themselves, especially in the militant way that is so prevalent today. If God exists, eternal life exists. One would wonder the motive behind a purposeful attempt to reject eternal life for themselves and those that they claim they love. So why on Earth, logically, would one seek to destroy the notion of eternal life in their minds? I can think of many reasons. These reasonings make up different Atheist religious denominations. 1)The atheist denomination of guilt. If I deny God, I don't have to feel guilt for things like doing drugs, being an alcoholic, having premiscuous sex, etc. 2)The atheist denomination of anger. I am angry at God because I have lost something or someone imortant to me, and it hurt. Out of anger I reject God. 3)The Atheist denomination of Darwinian Evolutionists. Despite scientists like Davide Berlinski, who is secular and a scientist in the field, saying darwinian evolution is false and pushed by the New Atheist movement with nontheistic motives, even saying it isn't even worth being called a theory, they believe on blind faith in order to justify to themselves somehow that God doesn't exist. 4)The homosexual denomination. I believe "God is against homosexuals", so I reject him because I support or am homosexual. Etc etc... * Buddhism is a nontheistic religion that claims no creator god, and yet it is listed as a religion. https://en.m.wikipedia.org... Atheism is a nontheistic religion that claims no god and on faith. * On this very forum under "Religion", many people put "Atheist". * Question: Why is it a problem if someone considers atheism a religion? Question: How does that hurt the atheists’ claim? It's not saying you can't believe God does not exist. I don't believe in unicorns, fairies, or flying spaghetti monsters. Richard Dawkins once said Theists are all atheists, we just take our thinking one god further. Fine. Call me a participant in spaghetti monster atheism. I have no emotional appeal if you call me such. Sure I admit it. I am unicorn atheist. Real atheists are SO religious that they begin to get tyranical if you call atheism a religion. Why? Because it is, and they know it. They have deep emotional reasons. When you hate God, you psychologically try to detach from the word "religion", feeling it is inferring you are no different than theists. Atheists want no such attachment to god. Anti-religion is a religion in and of itself. Here is a site where you can download "atheist pamphlets" to print out and pass out just like relidious denominations do, namely Jehovah's Witnesses. https://freeatheism.org... Here's an article about door to door Atheists that knock on doors to promote atheism. http://scienceblogs.com... Tithing: Atheists pay money to help support the spread of atheism. http://atheist.ie... So far I have demonstrated: 1)Atheists have their own churches. 2)Atheists have atheist pamphlets describing their beliefs to be handed out. 3)They are looking for converts. 4)They go door to door preaching their beliefs. 5)They have literature to support their beliefs, suchas writings by Hitchens, Dawkins, and Harris. 6)It takes a stance on the concept of God, stating "unbelief" or "lack of belief". 7)It has evangelists preaching Atheism such as Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, and Sam Harris. 8)Con states that it has similarities to religion. 9)It goes on blind faith. 10)Atheists are unmoved even if presented evidence that supports Creationism, by definition, a strong confirmation bias. 11)It has become militant towards other beliefs. 12)On this very forum, under Religion, many Atheists put...Atheist. 13)Some atheists pray or are spiritual, which is religious. 14)Atheists tithe.
