What is atheism?

@MoveAlong This makes sense to me. God is only a word that means venerated. In the English before Christianity the word was used by the pagans. A lot of people, atheists and theists, think that God is a name for the being in the Bible, Jehovah, who claims to have made life, the universe and everything. Many don't believe in the Bible and therefore one of it's many gods (Jehovah, Jesus, Moses, Satan, Dagon, Baal, etc.) Being a theist doesn't mean you venerate all of those gods. You can venerate just one. The writers of the Bible were henotheistic. Since a god can be anything or anyone venerated the likelihood of there being any true atheist is slim. Money is the most common God, but sex would, historically, give that a run for its money. Pun intended.

@PathwayMachine God is not a name.. It's a descriptor.. Jehovah is God.. Like the Sun is a Star..

God is like Star a descriptor not a name..

@Adstar Correct. That was my point. God is a word meaning to pour, libate.

Edit To Add: God is a title, like lord. God in English means literally libate, pour, in Hebrew it means mighty/strong. Lord means having authority, usually, but not always granted. Landlord. Jehovah is a spirit being. Supernatural. The Bible calls him God and Lord. Jesus was a mortal man, and he is called god and lord. Moses was called God by Jehovah, as were the judges of Israel. Jesus wasn't supernatural. I often use the term King, which was also used to describe Jesus and Jehovah. Charles is a king, but not my King. He is King of the Brits. So, though he isn't my king he is still a King.

Saying there are no gods is like saying there are no lords or kings. It's just silly.
