(17,505 posts)25. It's an amusing hypocrisy the way so many theists try to use calling atheism a religion as a jab.
Indeed. "It's just a religion.... oh wait!"
It's like woo-mongers who poo poo science and then try to justify their outrageous claims by dressing them up in science-y jargon. 'Cause, that science-y sounding stuff makes it legit! But science is not worth respecting...?
Anyway, I went with "ignorant".... in the sense that some religious people cannot step outside the box and even imagine a person who does not spend their (valuable) time doing religious-y things or doesn't have religious-y thoughts. But we do Blanche... we do!
In fact I find religion to be totally ego-driven. It's all about the religious and everyone and everything on Earth and in the universe is just like their back yard.
