Atheism only makes one statement. There is no evidence for god(s). No claim on anything else. What you are arguing is akin to saying those that dont believe in unicorns practice a rigid belief system. Is not collecting stamps also a religion?

Every single 'athiest' i've met and talked to is also so a-religious, I doubt that the athiestic dogma really permits the belief in anything outside of a transhumanist agenda of extending life and dominating those that don't believe what they do, and imposing their own political and moral views based on much scientific hooohooo. Some of which I respect and agree with. But certainly not all.
I once considered myself an athiest. But I got sick of reading athiests blogs.
I don't know what there may or may not be. I know that there may be nothing. And it doesn't hurt to practice a little faith. I also feel like my conciousness is to limited to use to judge the absence of a godess, gods, dieties, etc. It's foolish to say no.
I think people who dictate that their god must be worshiped is dumb, cause obviously seems pretty illogical god would only be a patriarchal male who plagerised a whole bunch of shit and made insane people write books.
BUT. Who knows? It's just way not likely. More likely the universe is holographic in nature or there's a spiritual side of things that may be understood in a technical way one day. But it's all rather new agey and there's a lot of ways one could go with it.
But I do believe it's likely that there are such things as a higher level conciousness that effectively is interested in us in some way and may interact with us. It's highly probable that we leave a mark permenant enough that it matters at some level to the rest of the universe. Even if we don't know what that is.
I mean Einstiens theory of relativity is great. But really time is experienced linearly, but it could be different. Just because were eating bits at a time doesn't mean that this path and tapestery isn't already woven.
