I recently saw an interview with Richard Dawkins (The God Delusion) and he defined atheists as people who definitely believe there is not a God. But actually few people fit into that definition......he suggests a more appropriate term would be agnostic or non-theist.
Nontheism is a term that covers a range of both religious and nonreligious attitudes characterized by the absence of - or the rejection of - theism or any belief in a personal god or gods. It is in use in the fields of Christian apologetics and general liberal theology. "Nontheism" should not be confused with "irreligion". ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, March 28, 2009 12:17 PM Subject: {Dawgs/Dittos} Re: Atheist Music > > > Interesting....I would have never thought to look for that.... > > So what is the definition of atheist? > > What would you use to define someone who just doesn't care one way or > the other about religion?
