Can Atheism be classified as an Occult Religion?

Because it's easier, requires no thought, just acceptance. Also, if their parents are Christian they might feel pressure to favor this viewpoint

Where do these idiotic threads come from?

God

How can that drivel possibly related to a claim that atheism is an occult religion? Apart from the oxymoron of calling atheism a spiritual or mystical practice, the author of this thread hasn't connected that rambling anti-evolution rant to atheism. There's no there there. Of course, for the holy rollers, acceptance of evolution is the equivalent of atheism.

Looking over this guy's topics, he seems intent on goading atheists. Perhaps a grudge? I haven't read his posts, other than a few glimpses.

Like the 'moon-landings', Juno and "mars-rover"?
Just 'acceptance'?

Don't you mean Cult?

Just curious, Mark. Where do you draw the line? What do you believe? Do you think they roll up the sidewalks two minutes after you walk by? Is it all put on just for you like in that Jim Carey movie "The Truman Show"?
You mentioned Tesla in another of our conversations. I assume you mean Nikola Tesla the engineer and inventor. What if I told you I have secret knowledge that he NEVER EXISTED? He is a fictional character. How could you prove I was wrong?
You've been to Croatia and saw the house in which he was born, saw his birth certificate in the local town hall? All fabricated just before your arrival. You read his biography? A work of fiction. Don't tell me you read a Wiki about his life and accomplishments, there's one that describes Einstein's ideas as well, all bullshit, right?
Anything you know about Tesla you got from some source not independently verifiable by you, and yet you choose to believe it.
Why not the moon landing or the Mars rover or the Juno mission?
Two questions you have to ask yourself; how many people have to be lying in order for me to be right? What will I accept as proof?

The search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) is a scientific research program that searches for signs of intelligence from distant space.

Should biologists likewise search for signs of intelligence in biological systems?

Sure. Why not?

Search for extraterrestrial intelligence in Space? They don't believe in God, why search for him? Maybe God doesn't want to be bothered by them.

Are you even following the conversation? What are you talking about? Who is searching for God in space?

I Never 'draw' a line, Tom.
Ask me a straightforward question - Without the addition of dissemination, prior to.

I like how you soften your attack by (personalising) using my name, btw.
Gesture reciprocated, sir.

The moderators are engaging in voting brigading. I received a -5 for outing them out. I think it's rather comical that when a person uses reason and logic against their soapboxing that they often retaliate. Oh back to the question, Can Atheism be classified as an Occult Religion?

It's more of a Cult following of a leader. Much like Hitler who had a following. Hitler based his belief off of Darwinism for a Superior Race. Of course Social Darwinism is corrupt. Definition: a misplaced or excessive admiration for a particular person or thing "a cult of personality surrounding the leaders"

I vote topics down, to filter (relative) shite. I've never voted a post down.
If you think 'they' are ganging-up on you - Call Interpol NOW!.
But stop posting me, please - I don't care.

Yes, calling you by name puts you at ease and demonstrates my sincerity. I don't want to attack you, Mark. I want to engage in meaningful conversations with you and others. It's just that I get frustrated when someone (you) makes blanket denials of accepted knowledge without offering a reasonable alternative.

I offer you links... You ignore.
I offer you discourse.... You apply slander.
I ask you a question..... You NEVER answer.
You are the attacker, Tom.
I have Never read a single 'valuable' proposal or educated premise from you.

That is ridiculous. The commander and pilot of the doomed shuttle Colombia were both deeply religious men with high IQ's and excelled to the very top as astronauts-the very essence of physical and mental achievement of men.
Commander Husband wrote about religion and evolution-he wrote 10 books-with a grand style and he never lost his great love for the spirit and Jesus Christ. He believed in evolution both spiritually and physically.

All religious people see science as atheist-you are a dammed fool.

And you just trash an incredible person and world wide hero who gave his life for science.

Apart from being a complete non-sequitur, you have also erected a staw man--I did not saying anything remotely resembling "All religious people see science as atheist . . . " Furthermore, I didn't trash anyone, but I'll be happy to trash you:

You're the damned fool here, you have the rhetorical skills of a nursery school student.
