If there is a God, atheism must seem to Him as less of an insult than religion.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
God doesn't believe in atheists.
Atheism is a moral position - a rather rigid one, if you've ever read the opinions of its highest-profile espousers, Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins.
Atheism is really nothing but a sorry litany of non-sequiturs, e.g., if God existed, why do we have all the evil and horrors in the world? But this presupposes that God is all-good, an obvious non-sequitur.
An atheist may be simply one whose faith and love are concentrated on the impersonal aspects of God.
Atheism is a religion itself complete with fanatics and bigots.
Even though I don't believe in God, I feel strangely compelled to fight the atheist label.
I don't think atheism means one does not believe in a spiritual life. I think it means one does not follow the tenets of the established religions.
Religion cannot and should not be replaced by atheism. Religion needs to go away and not be replaced by anything. Atheism is not a religion. It's the absence of religion, and that's a wonderful thing.
Atheism is nothing more than the noises reasonable people make when in the presence of religious dogma.
If atheism is to be used to express the state of mind in which God is identified with the unknowable, and theology is pronounced to be a collection of meaningless words about unintelligible chimeras, then I have no doubt, and I think few people doubt.
