→Definition of Atheism: new section
Conservapedia obsessive compulsive disorder seems to be a disorder invented by youself Big C. Do you have any clinical evidence for this disorder? I read it as a satirical piece, which is well done but hardly something to link to as proof. And I think it is rather cruel and nasty of you to diagnose someone with a mental disorder, even if it is pseudo. Katy has shown no sign of a disorder, she has only dis-agreed with you. --[[User:Patmac|Patmac]] 17:17, 4 May 2013 (EDT)

== Definition of Atheism ==
The article reads, "Atheism is the denial of existence of God." However, this is inadequate for two reasons. First, even if we maintain the word 'denial', atheism is the denial of existence of ''all'' gods, not just the Judeo-Christian one, ''and'' all supernatural events. Second, a person can be an atheist if they merely lack belief in any god; this is called weak atheism and is very similar to agnosticism, but does not actively deny the existence of any deities or the supernatural. Thus, I suggest a revision of the definition to: "Atheism is the denial of or lack of belief in the existence of any god or the supernatural." If I receive no response in 3 days, I shall change it.
