Basically this all comes down to people who think atheism requires the disbelief in all deities rather than just a lack of belief in all deities.

https://www.atheists.org/activism/resources/about-atheism/

Idk how to make it any clearer.


Are you really suggesting that atheists.org is a more reliable source than Merriam-Webster?

Yes, obviously. Plus Merriam webster gives both definitions, which is exactly what I've been trying to teach you this entire time.

Neither atheists.org nor Webster prescribe meaning to words. They only describe usage.

And the fact is that both usages of atheism are common.

Exactly.

Why did you make this second topic?

Theyre two different topics about two different things.
