"text voice" is a made-up thing, sort of like atheism. Mannerisms are not visible through the board. Your argument has been soundly refuted. Go away troll.

Atheism didn't come from anywhere. A lack of religion is a sort of "default setting", just like a lack of language or a lack of cultural values.
I hope this has helped you to understand.

Atheism is the belief there in no god. This is a religion taken on faith. The lack of religion would be some kind of apathetic agnosticism.

If atheism is a religion, then bald is a hair colour, and not collecting stamps is a hobby.
It is the absence of religious belief. Agnosticism still entertains the idea of religion, so would not be a lack of religion.
I hope that this has helped you to understand how things are.

I like how you expressed the thing that you are wrong about.
Atheism = "I believe there is no god."
Apathetic agnosticism = "Don't know, don't care."

Nah. You're mixing your terms.
A religion is a belief in a higher power. Anti-theism is a dislike of a specific ideology.
@662,223 (I)
I like how you are wrong. Wait, no, I do not like that. It is somewhat sad.
Atheism = no religious beliefs (as wears born)
Theism = religious beliefs (which are introduced later)
Has this made it clearer for you?

No, I am afraid you have it twisted again.
Let's take a cue from the 10 mile man and quote Wikipedia:
> Religion is a cultural system of behaviors and practices, mythologies, world views, sacred texts, holy places, ethics, and societal organisation that relate humanity to what an anthropologist has called "an order of existence".
Atheism is none of these. It's not a system of behavior, a practice or a mythology. It's a relatively simplistic worldview compared to religions. Then, of course, atheism has no sacred texts, places, established ethics or societal organisation.
I think where people are tripping up is that they're misunderstanding that atheism is a lack of religion, rather than a religion in and of itself. Merely having an opinion upon the supernatural Dodd not in itself, constitute a religion.
Hope this has straightened things out!

I am afraid it is still not a religion. The anti-theists still aren't grouped by any specific doctrines or beliefs. They share an opposition to theism, but that is the only unifying factor. And even then, the intensity of that opposition is entirely for the individual anti-theist to decide.
@662,348 (L)
Okay, and atheism is, in fact, a lack of execution upon a religious belief system. Atheism isn't really a belief system any further than a decision not to go into the various religious belief systems.

Anti-theists believe that other religions are flat out wrong, and it is their duty to point this out as often as possible. This is exactly the same behavior exhibited by evangelical Christians, Muslims, and politicians.

'Exactly the same behavior'
No. Just no. You have a very elementary understanding of religion. Being able to analogize how religious and non religious people behave doesn't make their beliefs or practices equivalent.

You are only looking at passionate anti-theists. One can be against religion but still be relatively mild in expressing this belief.
And, indeed, merely being excessively passionate with a belief does not make that belief a religion. Bert can never shut up about Triptych, but I think we can all agree that he is not following a religion based around her.
(Also, I confess that I came into this thing half trolling with the patronising statements. I sort of wish I had not!)
