A reader named Guy Monty posted the following on "The True Meanings of
Christmas, Part II". I want to respond to it in detail, because I think
it is a good example of delusional atheism. Guy's comments are in
italics.

Although I am not affiliated with any group,
movement, or cadre, I am an atheist. From what I have witnessed and
learned in 44 years here on planet Earth, I have to agree that religion
is stupid, offensive and that it does actively erode man's quality of
life. Why? Because it requires one to accept things for which there is
no evidence, as if there is. As soon as one sets foot on that path, the
mind is left open to all kinds of nonsense. This can manifest itself in
a fairly benign form of delusion (crystal and faerie worshipers for
instance), but it is delusion nonetheless. Any creature which chooses
to allow fantasy to take the decision making reigns, is a creature
which will eventually get itself into trouble. With social animals such
as humans, this inevitably leads to getting ones fellows into trouble
as well. The moment when your argument against atheism fails, is when
you assume that atheism is some form of dogma, theology, or even an
ideology. It's not. It simply means that one does not believe in a
deity.

Atheism is a religion. It's a religion that makes sense, in fact, much more sense than other religions in the world; but this also is dependent upon the context in which the religion is set. The time period of history, the location, the knowledge and technology are all factors which determine the relevance of a world view.

The true definition of an "atheist" has nothing to do with 'not believing' or acknowledging either God or a god; it has everything to do with not having the need to as the "atheist" in the 'true' sense is a person who percieves themselves to be either God or a god. In other words the idea of 'believing' or acknowledging God is simply not necessary for the "atheist". Problem here is that most people who consider or confess themselves to be "atheist" have no idea that this is what the term means. Ask the Kabbalists such as Karl Marx (that "communist atheist"). Don't be deceived, the planet is engineered by such who consider themselves God's. I know, I broke free from the "family" - and paid the price. Thankfully, Jesus had bought me prior.
