Athiesm in its truest form is definitely not a religion.
I have a lot of problems with religions for various reasons. I don't understand the whole concept. If I don't believe I don't get in. And if someone does believe they can do whatever they want, beg for forgiveness and they get in. I'm a very honest and true person, and knowing that I wont get in because I don't have blind faith troubles me. Why "create" me as a logical person who needs proof and then have me live an honest and true life then deny me?
In any event. There is a sect of Athiesim that makes sense to me. I forget the exact name of it, but basically, prove it and i'll believe.
I believe the values in a lot of religions are great. I don't have children yet, but have every intent on taking them to church and giving them the choice. I'll play along when they are young. I feel that when they are older I'll explain what I believe if I haven't changed my beliefs.
