Atheism and Leperchauns-ism

If someone is an atheist because they believe in atheism, they're doing it wrong.

I could be wrong, so please feel free to correct me.

You are wrong.
Is the opposite correct, which would be like thus:

Atheism people are not free doing anything, they are under some compulsion and are united and disciplined. Atheism reflects a disciplined behavior of the people belonging to it.

You got it! We atheist wake up every morning, eat some kittens for breakfast, go out on the street and have sex with whoever is there followed by murdering them. That's just before noon. Afternoon, we pick a bank to rob, and steal some cars. Then we slay some animals at the stake, cutting out the hearts and eating them of course. And our evenings consist of thinking up the best ways to destroy all of the earth's ecosystems, start wars and spread hatred and bigotry.

Now maybe you will have all the answers to your questions about atheists no? Please, regards.


Edit: That is just some of us of course because everyone is an individual responsible for their own actions. Some are busy being ethical, loving, caring, learning, forgiving, moral, humanist human beings.

But because no atheists is the same other than lacking belief in Abrahamic deities, their milage will vary. If you still have questions about atheism after this, you will never learn and should find a better way to spend your time. Google is your friend.
Sorry!
I did not say all that. I just expressed that it is not a requirement of Atheism, please. Right, please?

While that is a common enough statement, it is also a genuinely surprising one, because it does not make any real sense.

Atheists are just regular people. We are not excused from discipline. We are subject to laws, to social norms and to our own consciences and to other people's judgements just as much as anyone else.

Sure, we do not (usually) believe in an afterlife where we might be punished or rewarded, but that is far less consequential than you seem to realize.

Uh, I don't know if that makes sense, but I can tell your for certain that it is not correct.

They should not have believed in Atheism to start with. They should have focused to find truth from among the believers. Right, please?
Thanks and regards

Uh, we do not quite "believe in atheism". We just happen to be atheists. There is a significant difference.

To be an atheist is to lack the belief that at least one deity exists.

To believe in atheism is, presumably, to believe that atheists exist, or perhaps that atheism as an idea has been proposed at some point. Which is of course true, but quite unremarkable as well.

As for the second part, I am just not seeing it. Many or most atheists (myself included) see no reason to expect believers (in God's existence, I assume) to have any better a grasp of truth than non-believers.

If anything, we have good reason to be slightly less trusting of the theists' grasp of truth.

I take it that you feel otherwise? Why so?

Why do you keep doing this, Paarsurrey? We've explained this a hundred times, yet it either doesn't sink in or you're purposely trolling.
Atheism is not a behavior. Atheism has nothing to do with behavior. Atheism has nothing to do with discipline.
How can it be so hard to grasp what atheism is?

Discipline is not a factor. It is not something that need be repeatedly qualified in order to reaffirm. In fact, an atheist is capable of and not prohibited from voicing, thinking of doing something theistic without becoming a theist. That isn't a factor either.

Atheism requires no doctrine or dogma.

That's okay. My response was a little harsh. I always try to be not too sarcastic, but sometimes my patience isn't what it should be.

I'm hoping you now understand that we are all the same people. All of us are just humans trying to make it through life the best way we can. Whatever one chooses to believe or not believe.

Like I said before, just do your best and treat the rest of the life on this tiny planet we share, in a compassionate manner. Be kind and thoughtful of others unless they mean you harm, then protect yourself. If something doesn't seem right, it probably isn't true. Be mindful. Those are some words of wisdom from this atheist.

And lastly, try to learn from your mistakes and be open to what others in a different situation tell you about themselves. Most at least strive for sincere ethics and honesty. We are all in the same boat other than our beliefs or non-beliefs. Hopefully we all strive to keep that boat afloat.

@ friend Subduction Zone: "One does not 'believe in Atheism' ".
It is not worth believing in Atheism as is not worth believing in "Leprechauns-ism". Is it correct to state that, please?
No offense intended to any person, please.

Not believing in atheism is silly, since there is plenty of evidence that atheism exists.
