‘God’ doesn’t necessarily mean a supreme being (actually can’t restrict it to those narrow bounds) since it’s a unique concept for each of us. And, as a concept, atheists have a ‘god’ also, of nothingness…and what they believe is just as important to them.

In that respect, ‘God’ no matter how it’s defined is simply an accumulation of guiding principles. If it must be seen as religious doctrine, atheism is just as much a religion as any other form; just one more belief system – but, without a supreme being at the top.

Atheists who spend their time worrying about this religious symbol or that symbol in a cemetery or park should remember that wherever there’s no symbol standing on that property represents THEIR belief…

…in nothing supreme.

So, the next time an atheist complains of a manger scene in the park at Christmas time, politely remind them there was nothing there for the11 months before…

…celebrating their NOTHINGNESS…

…and no religious groups complained.
