Ah, that religion. Maybe it does exist, but if so, it's not called 
atheism. Antitheism, maybe?

When I say 'atheism' I mean the lack of belief in gods, not what you 
said above. I'm sure you're not one of the people, mentioned in my 
earlier post, that doesn't understand the difference between an absence 
of evidence and evidence of absence.

This is what happens when someone takes a word and makes it mean 
something different to what other people understand by it. Confusion, 
misunderstanding, arguments.

Your 'atheism' is a totally different thing to mine.
