Why would these retards spend so much time trying to disprove something if the really think it’s not real? I don’t think ghosts are real, but I have never once felt the need to try to prove they are not real…..

Atheism is not a religion.

Never said it was a faith, rather that it did not decree the absence of faith in some form. And, as for whether it’s a religion or not, I’m afraid that we could argue the semantics on that one until our dying days. Whether you recognize it as a formal religion or not, my point is that you need to recognize the atheistic parallels to the various aspects of practiced religions to be able to speak intelligently on common ground. No one is going to care what you have to say if you’re simply declaring that all (or all other) religions are invalid simply because you don’t believe in them. It is our atheism that allows us to be inclusive, so why not leverage that advantage.

Fred, he is an atheist. As atheists we don’t believe in any gods, whether Christian, Islamic, Jewish, Hindu, Wiccan, or those of any of the other more than one thousand major world religions. Most of us dismiss more than gods though, we also see no reason to believe the frankly unknowable claims of resurrection or reincarnation, the spirits, ghosts, and souls, the miracles, telepathic communications and other wild claims all these religions posit. I would say he singled out Christians because he probably lives in USA, a culture saturated with Christian delusions.

In some ways you are right to say that the three big Abrahamic religions worship the same god, but in others that is incorrect. There are major differences. The Jewish books are the source of all three religions, but they don’t agree that Jesus was a prophet. Some Muslims think Jesus was one of three prophets (Abraham, Jesus, Mohammed), but some others think Jesus was just a guy who had wild, but erroneous claims made about him. Christians, however, have made Jesus as central to their religion as Muslims have made Mohammed to theirs (hence the name “Christ-ian”. Their god has taken on the rather hippie qualities of of Jesus, whereas Muslims’ god has taken on more of Mohammed’s. So all three Abrahamic religions now believe in three quite different gods.

Even within these religions you find these changes. There are now about 800 different varieties of Christianity. Some worship a frankly horrifying god with a thirst for blood and vengeace, while others barely worship anything at all, their religion having become almost secular, humanist, and realist. At about 50 variants, Islam has broken into a much smaller number, yet still very different forms, worshipping very different kinds of god. Even the Jewish religion has splintered, though into fewer variants.

So which god do all these people worship?
