Do you think it would be wise....?

Question

For yahoo to issue a small dictionary to everyone in the R&S section. Personally, if I keep seeing people saying that atheism is a religion I may pull my hair out. So here goes.....

atheism: Disbelief in, or denial of, the existence of god.

What would you like to see in our R&S dictionary?

Answer 1

Listen sister, I'm a real atheist, and atheists decide what's what about life, not some dictionary.

I'm Atheist!

Answer 2

Evolution is a good one.

There is a lot of misconception about it out there.

People confuse it with adaptation, a lot. They think that it may explain the origin of life, and they think that finches can tell us how we developed from unicellular creatures....

Answer 6

The problem is that if you believe in one of the organized standard religions, you are likely to believe anything. It's hard for some people to envision a world not based on belief in something or other. It's like the idea of denying the existence of something is impossible for them. They think you need concepts to survive.
