Atheism Gets More Religious
Heating It Up for Atheism in July continues with some reminders that atheism is, indeed, a religion . Let's also face that atheism is a worldview, a way of life and (for many) an excuse to hate people who refuse to disbelieve. Here are two embarrassments for those who hold to the intellectually dishonest claim that atheism is a "lack of belief" [ 1 , 2 , 3 ] . First, the "First Church of Atheism", where you can be an ordained clergyman and use it as a means of making money [ 4 ] . If that isn't embarrassing enough, British atheists are building a temple of worship [ 5 ] . Of course, they'll be worshiping their own egos, since they deny the true and living God. So, in addition to showing how atheism is philosophically and intellectually bankrupt, we can show that the atheistic worldview is also hypocritical.
