Excuse me, sir, but your definition of atheism '''fails to account for those who believe in other gods besides our own'''.  If you say that atheism itself is denial of God's existence, '''you're saying that all Hindus, Atenists, Sabians, Tengrists, Bábists, Tenriists, Rastafarians, Sikhists, and even the Bahá'í faith, all of whom worship a non-Biblical God or gods, are all atheists, which we know is simply not true'''.  Not to mention that you have an article explicitly stating that [[Atheism is a religion]], so telling me that my making edits based on the exact principles you teach is wrong does not make any sense to me.

Actually, yes, I ''can'' say that atheists deny the existence of anything spiritual (And could you please stop saying "atheists/agnostics" like they're one and the same?  They're '''not the same'''.).  Buddhists say they do not believe in any God or gods, but they do believe that nature itself has a spiritual aspect where most atheists and agnostics disagree.  Likewise, the Jain religion teaches the existence of souls, but not believing in God does not automatically make them atheists.

I would also like to file a formal complaint against you and other editors reverting my edits to the article on Islam to say that it is also a system of beliefs besides a political system.  That's what the article that ''you'' cite, "Why Islam is Not a Religion" says about Islam: it is BOTH a system of beliefs and an ideology, but just because it incorporates a system of beliefs does not make it a religion.

I studied comparative religion for a time in college, so I know that the concept of religion is not as black-and-white as this Website would have one believe.  What baffles me most of all is why this site has resources for leaving atheism and becoming a Christian but no resources for leaving any other religion and becoming a Christian.  It's as if this site exists in its own universe where Christianity and atheism are one's only two choices for religion.
