Atheism - The good, the bad, and the ugly.
Disclaimer: I have chosen my words carefully on this topic and I would appreciate you doing the same. Preaching and/or derogatory comments about me or anyone else will not be accepted. The Overview: There are many misconceptions about atheism and what it means to be an atheist. I thought it would be a good idea to clear these things up right from the start. First, atheism is not a religion. This can be proven by simply looking up the definitions of the words. Atheism has nothing to do with science, politics, or any worldview (if that term even means anything). Atheism is only a stance on one subject, the belief in a god or any god. That's it. Just the one thing. Does that surprise you? Atheism does not have any special book or godma. There is no other beliefs that is necessary to be an atheist besides the rejection of the god claim. Therefore, nothing can be done in the name of atheism. Not the good things people do like donating to charity or leading a country to prosperity....
