In fact, 'atheism' is a term that should not even exist. No one ever needs to identify himself as a 'non-astrologer' or a 'non-alchemist'. We do not have words for people who doubt that Elvis is still alive or that aliens have traversed the galaxy only to molest ranchers and their cattle. Atheism is nothing more than the noises reasonable people make in the presence of unjustified religious beliefs.

@newjaninev2 Atheists actually come in two different flavours. The ones who rant about the stupidity of the Faithful and how much trouble death and disaster religion has caused (Whether they are right or wrong is a seperate question) And those who ignore the whole thing and let those who want to believe go for it , as long as they stay out of our faces. If it brings you comfort, why should I try to mess up your day?😷
