    so, why is atheism not a religion yet?

    I still don't get why, strongly not believing in a god, forming movements and "churches", evangelizing the word of the great sagan dawkinsdegrasse, putting science and state instead of faith and clergy so different from a normal day to day cult,

    is the dissonance force field that strong?

    • OK! :) so... when do we know it's officially a religion? when there's an actual church of atheism and not as a joke?pango
    • let's say atheism began mimicking the practices of some religions. so what? there's still no god, all they did was build a building and call it a church. christians building churches isn't an issue, christians being fucking idiots and burning others down is.scarabin
