Atheism is a religion

For years, Atheists have sued, protested and harassed everyone else about religion and the practicing thereof.

Now Atheists have started an event for non-believers similar to events by theists. This event targeted atheists and non-believers in the military. The event, called "Rock Beyond Belief" took place at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, in the same area where "Rock the Fort" an event put on by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association in 2010.

The event organizer, Justin Griffith, a sergeant in the U.S. Army stationed at Fort Bragg stated, "We're sending a message, foxhole atheists are out there fighting for your rights. Please return the favor."

Fort Bragg's garrsion commander said that allowing the event to be held on base was the Army's way of ensuring all soldiers, believers or not are treated equally.

Guest speaker, Richard Dawkins author and well known Atheist commented that he wished religious soldiers would have attended, "Because I was hoping to change their minds".

That sounds just like witnessing to me. If you don't know what witnessing is, it is where religious people go out and talk to people who may not believe in an attempt to get them to accept religion.

The full article on this is HERE I ask you to read it for yourself and ask yourself a few questions.

Does the Atheist wish to collect donations and use of the chapels mean they are religious in nature?

Does the Atheist desire to "Change" the minds of Theists denote that they are acting in a religious capacity?

Is the Atheists belief in Non-Belief, a faith in and of itself?

If you agree with me that the Atheists are a religious organization, (which I have been saying for years), then don't they need to quit filing law suits to force their beliefs on others? They file lawsuits to remove any reference of religion in government or on government property. Isn't that forcing their beliefs on everyone else? They file lawsuits so people can't have a prayer or a moment of silence at a high school game, or a moment of silent time in class. Aren't they doing what they say Theists are doing? Forcing their beliefs on others.

I personally have no problem with Atheists. I know many of Atheists, and they live good moral lives just like everyone else. My issue is their trying to force everyone else to "Toe their line" As if they are the final arbiters of what is and isn't right. Isn't that kind of egotistical of them?

All I will say about this for now is....

If you don't like something, no one is forcing you to do it. The US Constitution doesn't guarantee you the right to not be offended by something, so if you don't like it do go there. Or you can do what thousands and maybe millions of other people do. They ignore it, or overlook it, so they don't effect others. It's called common courtesy. Maybe Atheists and Theists could look it up... And start using it.
