We have no belief system. We do not need christianity or any other religion to define who we are.
Calling someone an atheist is using theists to define what we are not.
I think this is where a lot of misinformation begins.
It is about as different from believing in god as you can get.
I appreciate the sentiment that everyone shouldn't get upset about this issue, and I of course realize you didn't invent the word atheist, but this thread is really informative and I thought I would make a point.
Don't mean to sound snarky, really, just using your thread as a launchpad.:hi:
