::::::::I spent more time looking at the report. Rather than call the document a report on atheism from a global perspective providing survey results, I merely said it was a worldwide report on religious belief/skepticism giving survey results. I already covered the definition of atheism previously in the article and I didn't want to rehash things and bog down the reader. 17:20, 17 September 2011 (EDT)

:::::::::Sam, maybe you will find someone to argue with you about the definition of atheism and what the report actually said. It is not going to be me though based on our previous interactions. Given your propensity to not adequately respond to communication directed your way, I have decided that if I want to discuss things with a brick wall, I don't need you and can do so readily without you.

::::::::::The definition of atheism is a lack of belief in gods. Feel free to cherry-pick 50 year old sources that contradict that, but as I've explained to you, words change their meaning. No matter how much smoke you blow about having to define which gods an atheist is denying, the fact is that NO atheist believes in ANY gods. If you want to insist on arguing against a definition of atheism that atheists themselves reject that's fine. However back here in the real world I live in a country where atheists already outnumber committed believers, and I'm really quite keen on making sensible arguments to try to reverse that trend. As it stands the CP atheism article is NOT making those arguments and you don't seem interested in anyone's opinion but your own. --[[User:SamCoulter|SamCoulter]] 18:44, 17 September 2011 (EDT)
