“My original statement is one that I stand next to and proudly wear as a badge: atheism is a religion.”
Well then, how about follow the golden rule and give my religion the same respect that you would like for me to give to yours.
I'm an evengelical Protestant, i.e., Plymouth Bretheran, and that intimates fundamental Christian having ideation of sola scriptura et ali. You don't see me running amok on the Catholic theology threads.
What's your problem in this instance?
