The Quran is a resource for followers of Islam and ahmiyddaya but only them,not for me,the story is irrelevant,how Muhammad got to the faraway mosque from Mecca in a day and up to heaven 50 times is unbelievable,everything we know points to that for me so you see that’s all it is,forget the Pauline thing as I don’t believe that either.

One couldn't quote from Quran in this connection. Right?

No, but those with religious beliefs (and hence often a belief in God) often have problems with science more than any atheists might. Not that any atheist is bound to believe any or all of science - just the bits that tend to make a lot more sense than any religious beliefs as to such. Do you not see those here who tend to have the most ludicrous views, and often because they either lack the appropriate knowledge or just dismiss such because they prefer the religious explanations?

Atheism is a stance,it’s not complicated,from your resources Muhammad went on a flying donkey to Jerusalem,went up to heaven 50 times to negotiate with your god how many times salat was to be performed,nobody witnessed it of course,and there is no evidence for it so I for example I dismiss it as mythology and reject it.

Did It ( Atheism) just sprang up or mushroomed in the sixteenth century or so while the natural Religion already existed from centuries before, please?
Since, they criticize and bully religion day in and day out and say the code of the truthful religion/s is man's creation, it should not be difficult for them to invent the "resource" for them, please,

Then don't use the word stance about Atheism, unless it has been mentioned as such in one's "resource", please. Right?

Wrong.

By the way, if you get to define the proper term for atheism, I should get to define the proper term for Islam. Right?

You should understand that as long as a name is reasonable that the members of a belief set are the ones that get to name their belief, not others. You try to defend your false claims by abusing etymology, but English does not work that way.

I gave the optimistic because he appears to have a strong cognitive dissonance when this subject comes up. He acts as if he has his own answers that he has decided upon already, but he cannot justify them.

For some odd reason @paarsurrey seems to think that some sort of Atheist Bible is needed. As usual he refuses to answer questions and merely continues to ask what are now foolish questions.

Clearly no atheist “Bible” is needed. If it were, someone would have written it.

Perhaps some have tried - after all, many books are written, which find no readers.

For this hypothetical Bible of atheist thought to have value, many would have to have read it; it’s literary, philosophical, cultural and a-theological contribution to the rich history of human ideas would be the subject of much debate. Great works of art would be inspired by it; people’s lives would be enriched by it. It would be the subject of multiple translations, re-interpretations, questions as to the nature of it’s authors, their intent and conviction, their cultural bias, their familiarity with the subject matter etc.

But no such book exists, so we can’t discuss it. Perhaps, eventually, a group of atheists will produce a compendium of diverse literature as wise as Ecclesiastes, as full of poetic imagery as the Psalms, as revolutionary as the Gospels, as full of bewildering, hallucinatory vision as Revelation. But as yet, this hasn’t happened.

They don't have a resource. They simply disagree. I think.
