A very interesting report and statistics on secularity in America. @ingersoll_bob I think you might find it interesting to read.
If it's reasonable to call rocks atheist, then it's also reasonable to call rocks (at least solitary ones) a-social. I'm sure they are a-political as well. Using this as an argument against the 'lack X' definition of atheism is poor, we have a ton of 'lack X' words. It's not new.
If they are always going to choose NOT to go with the religion if given the ability to choose, what does that say about the truth of the religion?
This meme is basically an argument for secularism.

I wonder if theists who say that atheism is a religion would still say that if we wanted to start a church and get tax exemptions.
1. My position as an atheist is not 'there is no God', but rather that I am not convinced there is a God.
2. Even if this were the case, faith alone wouldn't constitute a religion.
3. Atheism is no more a religion than 'not-collecting stamps' is a hobby.
For most in the west like myself, while we go through our own valid struggle when leaving religion, we are at least fortunate to not have to worry that our life is in danger for doing so. My thoughts are with those who do. #ApostasyDay
Why do you continuously and consistently misrepresent atheism? I do not often accuse people of lying, but at this point it seems you must be. Pretty sure your book says something against that.
Probably the worst version of Christianity to propose. Not only does it create a huge barrier between us as individuals (due to this view forcing them to believe that atheists are lying) but it also allows me as an atheist to know that the Bible is false under this view.

Seeing the comments from some Muslims on here supporting this is disgusting.
My heart is broken for #Alireza - beheaded in Iran by his own brother for being gay. He was attempting to seek asylum in Turkey with his boyfriend. Only TWENTY years old. Imagine what his life would have been had he escaped? 😔💔 #AlirezaIsMyFamily #علیرضا_فاضلی_منفرد @6rangiran
Imagine seeing that someone has been beheaded by their own brother for being gay and having the fucking audacity to decide that the relevant opinion to weigh in on the situation is that 'He chose to be gay'.

Incorrect, once again you strawman atheists. If you want a positive belief, I'll happily give you one:
I believe that it is unreasonable to believe that God exists, and I like to tell people why.
That tells you nothing about whether I believe God isn't real, or just lack belief.
This is completely incorrect, and the only thing you're going to achieve is to misrepresent the positions of atheists.
'Asocial' in one definition is 'a lack of social interaction'. Rocks aren't asocial, therefore asocial is a truth claim? See how your logic doesn't hold up.
Does Atheism make a truth claim or is it simply a lack of belief?
If it is simply a lack of belief in God, then rocks, lakes...the greenish-grey thing in your fridge...are atheists.
But they are not, so Atheism is a truth claim. The claim that God does not exist.
#Atheism
(Some) Theists: “X doesn’t occur naturally, it needed humans to design it. Therefore God designed everything”
Also (Some) Theists: “X only occurs naturally, humans haven’t been able to recreate it, Therefore God did it.”
And if there is no afterlife, it's everything. It's all of existence, at least yours and mine. It's the sum total of all the experiences that you'll ever have. What's more important than that?

It's genuinely terrifying to imagine living in a country that does this. End Blasphemy Laws. #ReleaseZaraKay

Atheism doesn't attempt to explain these things. Theism may, but is unable to demonstrate it's truth.
