My personal objection to the use of atheism as a term to describe my outlook is the same as my line of reasoning in the 1 zero thread. Where a given value of "one" is dynamically attached to a related value of "zero" the word atheism defines theism as "one" and atheism is "zero", which asserts that the value of my "zero" is set by the value of that "one".
