Beit-Hallahmi, Benjamin. "Morality and immorality among the irreligious." Atheism and secularity 1 (2009): 113.
Ideology is a free pass for atrocities
yes
Any ideology can be twisted and used as a tool of submission
and atheism isn't an ideology
kek
But communism is.
Where is the balance between religion and ideology
atheism is rejecting god,
Not a belief in an ideal

Ah!
@JohnOakman there really isn't a huge distinction when it comes down to it.
Yes, that's what I pointed out reading the report.
It details the screening facilities.
Confucianism was still a religion despite being heavily focused on politics and the state
"Ideology: a system of ideas and ideals, especially one that forms the basis of economic or political theory and policy."
@Dvir You have Muslims, shariah law, christianity, inquisition, judaism, sionism, etc..
liberalism was still a religion despite being heavily focused on politics and the state and being wrong all the time
And atheist have COMMUNISM <a:HammerSickle:470338844345237514> <a:HammerSickle:470338844345237514> <:NPC:500042527231967262>
as an atheist i reject communism
Or other radical ideologies that co-opt the place of religion
This is an interesting topic.
As a Christian, I reject the sins committed by Feudal Christian states
man thats gay
We can both be apologists
Interesting. These beliefs go back far.
Communism wasn't acted out as a command of atheism
Feudal christian states acted out as a command of god
I'm not an apologist, i'm stating you're making false connections
In the Atheist Communist society the state surplanted the role of God.
No, but communism is an ideology that is not religious.
@Undead Mockingbird But atheism sucks a bit cause now Europe is super super gay
yes, the state became the new god
Not a "Lack of god"
you said it yourself bub
Yes. Either way, the categorization is off.
It is irrational vs. rational.
They didn't take god away like true atheists, they replaced god with the state
And atheism is a religion
hah
