I love this discussion, and i don't think it's at all mean-spirited or bickering...

Having said that..........common belief=religion? So, everyone who believes the Easter Bunny doesn't exist is part of a religion? Obviously i could go on with groups of people who share a common belief that isn't considered a religion. Religion is a commonly shared belief system with rites and rituals and all that. All that stuff atheists don't have. Sorry to say Lee, and I'm not being nasty, but I have a B.A. in Religion Studies.... soooo..... yr prolly not gonna win this one. sry mate......
