Bruce – Who the hell are you and what exactly did I take the wrong way? You haven’t commented here before so whatever you’re referring to must be from another site. A reference like would be helpful. And the last sentence of your comment on this blog makes no sense.

If someone doesn’t believe in unicorns I suspect that they wouldn’t worship these creatures in the same way you do. I’m guessing they wouldn’t worship them at all so the value placed on them would not be the same at all.

What? That’s not what I meant! I am shocked! How could you take it that way! Just because I said “some people make a case that X should be pushed in front of a train” doesn’t mean I would ever argue that! How rude! But then, maybe I should have been more precise . . .
So, people that do not believe in Unicorns, like I do, are called A-Unicornists, and therefore worship fanciful creatures just like me. Aren’t we the same?

Agreed. I’m an atheist, and I wrote the following:

I Disagree with Dan Barker and the Freedom From Religion Foundation

bipolar2 – Are you just practicing your debate skills with me or did you cut and paste this from some other argument? I didn’t say that atheism was or is a religion. I said, “Freedom From Religion Foundation’s sign makes a case for those that consider atheism a religion”. I didn’t say it was a slam-dunk, a close case, or even a valid case. Maybe it would have been more precise of me to say that it *builds* a case that atheism could be considered a religion. It would be more precise for people to point to the Freedom from Religion Foundation and declare that it is religion, but they don’t. They point to atheism as if the Freedom from Religion Foundation speaks for all atheists and not just the ones who have an active membership.

My reference to semantics in regards to religion was in the fact that the Freedom From Religion Foundation put on their sign, “Religion is but myth”. It isn’t. It’s very real, as you yourself pointed out in your little spin-off tirade.

Thanks for the comment.
