Edited sentence: "Non-magical thinking" and terminology of that kin, have their foundations based on the scientific method, because these terms are selected by atheists themselves, and not like the "atheistic" kin of terminology based on the greek word "atheos", a word created by theists, and characterizing the "atheist" and "atheism" as notions outside theism."Non-magical thinking" is a terminology created from the visceral aspect of atheism and atheists themselves.Modern atheist scholars prefer to use the term "non-magical thinker" [or non-magical(ist), antimagical(ist), also non-magicalism, antimagy, antimagicalism] to denote denial of any non rationally justifiable belief, like traditional beliefs or personal delusion which cannot be justified by reason and observation.The Richard Dawkins Foundation accepts these "non-magical" terms as a depiction of a more "self-aware" atheism, but many accuse Richard Dawkins of populism, thus "scholar jargon" even if it provides a better ground of thought, does not serve always his goals in his opinion.The words "atheist" and "atheism" are greek-derived words created by theists and signify denial over theism
