I don't believe in God nor do I have a thing against those who do, so I'm neither religious nor atheist,

Ok, I give up.
1) you don't believe in god
2) you're not an atheist.

Do you have a theory that to be an atheist a person must no believe in god AND where a red hat, or what?

Please learn to use correct spelling and grammar if you want to critique, otherwise you come across as very stupid.

This is an incredibly weak dodge. luckyme has a very good point and you appear to be confused.

Saying one doesn't believe in God doesn't mean one doesn't believe in the possibility of the existence of some other-being that is all-powerful. It simply means one doesn't subscribe to the present options available in organized religion. It is very different to those who are against God.

And interesting that, PREDICTABLY, the religous are focusing on labelling here instead of looking at the issue being raised, which is that religion simply is not the No.1 overriding dominant social issue that the fanatics on both sides would want to shove down our throats and have us believe.

Atheists are not "against God" or against those who believe in God, and its a little sad to see that the propaganda campaign has been so effective on you.

Take a minute to try to reason out why this is an absurd position.
