atheism is a religion
>>68001110
Tis not.
But Tyranthism is.
yup
>>68001110
how?
atheism is not a religion.
atheists believe in humanitarianism, which is superior to religion in every way.
>>68001110
Google disagrees.
"Atheism is not a disbelief in gods or a denial of gods; it is a lack of belief in gods."

Stalin really looked like a hipster faggots back then

>>68001663
That's not actually Stalin. Been debunked.
>>68001110
No, it is the rejection of religion and thus the lack of one. Remove this bait thread.
bait, but i suppose atheists are required to have a faith in the nonexistence of a deity which kinda sounds like religion
>>68002613
There is no faith required in not believing in something that can't be proven to exist. It's believers can't produce sufficient evidence to support it. That's basic logic you muricunt
>>68002613
>A disbelief is in itself a belief
Wot
>>68001110
Atheism is a religion in the same way that not playing soccer is a sport.
It's a philosophy, sure. But it's not a religion. You don't believe anything. That would be like me saying "I am an engineer by virtue of me not studying or practicing engineering because I have an opinion on the matter."
That's pants-on-head retarded.
Not collecting stamps is a hobby.

Pick one you dumb cuck.
Atheism is not religion or a philosophy or anything other than a state like cold. Cold is not the presence of anything, but rather the absence of warmth. You can't CREATE cold, you can only remove heat. This is what atheism is.
>>68001780
incorrect.
it is the rejection of DIETY.

It is Stalin. Where did you hear it was "debunked"?
get some rare Stalin
>Meet at faggy conventions to tip fedoras and circle jerk each other
>Claim moral high ground over those less enlightened then themselves
>Get offend by those who don't share their beliefs
>Give themselves a label when asked what their beliefs are
Yup atheism definitely sounds like a religion to me.
>>68004748

that's pretty much it
ITT: People that believe the bible in spite of Jeremiah 8:8
>>68001110
What's it called when you believe that there's probably an entity out there that qualifies as 'god' but you think that the bible, torah, koran and all that stuff is ridiculous?

>>68004314
Sure it is, Chaim.
>People thinking that atheism is a philosophy
No, thatd be agnostic
>>68001110
It isn't. But atheism+ is.
>>68004922
what DO you believe in then? every person has their own dogma - if it's not religion, its replaced with something else.
>>68004158
It is a philosophical stance dumbass. Not believing in something is a philosophical position. Social sciences allow for believing in negatives, otherwise debating anything would be impossible. Religion does not, because it requires a positive stance on something metaphysical.
Fucking idiot.
>>68005259

Don't get me wrong I hate christcucks too. I just find fedora tippers equally pathetic. If you label yourself an atheist then you have named yourself a member of a religious sect.

Stupid sexy Stalin. It's not like I want you to deport my ancestors from Saratov to Kazakhstan.
>>68003687
but you can't prove the non existence of god
therefore, you have faith in the no existence of god

Atheists worship nothing, therefore Atheism is not a religion.
Not believing in gnomes is superstition.

if you're actually curious as to what Jer 8:8 is referring to:
http://www.answering-islam.org/BibleCom/jer8-8.html
because what you are insinuating is a literal impossibility, when you consider the science of textual criticism and the innumerable ancient copies of Scripture that, even today, are still extant and harmonize with each other perfectly.
the URL above is directed to Muslims (who often attempt to make use of this verse - oddly enough, without EVER showing us what the "original" would have said, although they consider the OT to be Allah's word, and He would never let His word be corrupted), but it applies just as much to what you're claiming here
>>68004922
you being here defending your faith makes it a religion

>atheism is a religion
hmm, I don't think it is, but atheists sure do act religious. Maybe human beings are always religious, even when they don't have a proper religion.
I think OP's point is that Atheism is a faith based belief like theism.
By faith, I don't mean anything spiritual, only that that the observer of the belief ultimately accepts it without proof.
