You might as well say that a Christian's lack of belief in Thor is just as much a religion as his Christianity. No it's not.

To the extent that Christians devote hours of their lives debunking Thor-worship on internet message boards, your analogy holds.

This is something that I've never understood.
Besides the "atheistic pulpit", my comment about atheism being a religion was a direct reference to atheism being something that comes about by faith.
The atheists still "believe" in something, even if it's only science. Considering some of the political views of some of the resident conspiracy theorists on this board, I find such faith surprising.

Hmm? Atheists don't believe in science. I mean, maybe lots of them do but it has nothing to do with atheism.
