And surpirse surprise, none of those things are what Atheists do.

They do organize their life around their worldview in many ways though. I tend to define religion as a worldview and that would classify atheism as a religion. However, classically, I suppose that it isn't.

There is a difference between religion and a religous philosophy.

Literalism is a religous philosophy (it can be aplied to all relgions and things outside). It is a way of thinking.

Athiesm is similar to a religous philosophy.

Some people are fantasically devoted to socialism, would die for it, kill for it. Pretty "religious" if you ask me. It really depends on how loose your definition of religion is.

No, thats called devotion. You can be religious and not be devoted. You can like anything a lot.

Then any government could be considered a religion. Thats clearly not the case.

Well, they are! But that doesn't make socialism a religion.

I never said it did.

Well most religions can also be considered a cult as well.

Yes, but it consistantly amazes me that the most basic research isn't taught in schools.
Well what gets me sometimes is for my wife who took all the advanced and accelerated classes in school never really learned the basics first like history, geography and principles of psychics. While I would consider her to be very intelligent when it comes to scholarly things but I’m far more experienced in life and common knowledge then her.
