Ed. Note: John W. Loftus says nothing bothers atheists more than when people call atheism a "religion," or when they say you need "faith" to be an atheist. They will tell you that atheism is actually "the absence of faith." This video offers a more detailed explanation of the controversy:

    Very good

    This argument has been made before, but not quite so eloquently. Thank you for bringing this Mr. Loftus.

    Very well stated.

    It's surprising how often I hear somebody say that atheism is a religion , as if stating so invalidates atheism.

    Great work...

    I wish more religious people could understand that they are atheists too, when it comes to the thousands of gods that we have unceremoniously discarded over the millenia. Perhaps they wouldn't think it to be such a 'scary' word...
