OK, for all you believers in god who are intent on asking atheists to back up why they don't believe in god let me ask you a question...


Prove to me, using sound evidence, that your god exists and is the correct one to follow!!!

 

beward highway, you are starting to get "out there" again.

 

This event either means atheism is a religion, or 100,000 people are disrespecting a common faith with a basic f*ck you.

Pick your poison.

Either atheists are intolerant (peaceful secular society my ass)

or atheism is a religion.

Neither of those make sense. Luckily it's irrelevant. Do you believe in Santa clause? If not, is that a religion? If a group decides to get together and form an anti-santa clause group with a set dogma, then that could be a religion. But I wouldn't be part of it simply because I don't believe in Santa clause. Even if a few atheists somehow made a religion, out of their beliefs (which would still be nonsensical) the absence of belief wouldn't somehow become a religion. That's nonsense. basically you're trying to take the actions of a few and apply them to a mass of disjointed people who have little in common except for the absence of belief in something. How many people that don't believe in leprechauns also murdered people? Millions I'd be willing to bet. People who don't believe in leprechauns=murderers.
