So apparently, atheism has different meanings to different people. It is not just me vs. you. You do not know what the word is supposed to mean, but many people call themselves atheists even though they do not claim that there being a God is impossible. I have actually never met someone who says it is impossible.
It's not what I believe. I am posting commonly accepted definitions and how they apply to a given ideology. You are replying with nothing but your opinion.
I can't know this for sure but I am pretty confident that most atheists feel the same way I feel about what atheist means. Why do you think you know what it means more than actual atheists?
Of course it does. I'm going with the generally accepted definition that even atheism.org recognizes. You seem to be shoehorning the term atheism to fit into your own hybrid of atheism.
It is not my own, it is every atheist I have ever mets. And did you not read the things I posted from atheism websites? We do not deny the possibility of a god or gods.
I posted what atheism.org thinks atheism means and the history of what it means. I'll take that over your gut feeling on how anonymous "atheists" feel. Although if they feel as you do, I won't consider them to be true atheists either.
Then you aren't a traditional atheist, which is what I've been saying all along. I coined the term neo-atheist. I think it fits.
Neo-atheist is fine with me, but until that becomes a universal term, I am going to stick with atheist. Agnostic just doesn't get the job done for me.
