I am glad you like it I was not sure I should post it here but it make sense for me. I do not believe that an atheist objected to the term unless atheism has also become a religion of disbelief.

I would consider myself an atheist but that is personal. I don’t fear the name of God or want anyone to have my disbelief. Once someone campaigns in the name of atheism we have another inflexible religious dogma to contend with

It's enjoyable and stimulating to think about weightier problems from time to time, and I have certainly enjoyed PV's and Mom's thoughts on the matters.

Ms.O'Hare did her level best to elevate atheism to a belief system - I don't quite understand how they would have conducted the services or anything. Would they have substitued NoGod and NoJesus and just gone on like a church service?

You are very wise, noting that Atheism could become another religion, with an inflexible dogma...I had not thought of it in those terms, but see what you are saying...
