    How would this possibly derail a faith like atheism?
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    Did your parents tell you there was a toothfairy? They lied.
    Did your parents tell you there was a Santa Claus? They lied again.
    Did your parents tell you there was an Easter Bunny? Lies.
    But the one invisible being they told you about, god? Well that must be all true. Right?

    My parents never taught me to believe in the Toothfairy, Mr. Claus, or Da Wabbit...

    The God / No god argument was won a long time ago.

    Its strange how such primitive superstitions remain in such a nation as the USA. Religious belief is usually predominant in third world nations where life is desperate and difficult.

    YOu called it a faith. As an atheist I do not do or not do things because I have faith there is no god. God, or a lack there of does not enter my mind EXCEPT when having discussions like this. I do not think to myself, "I am so glad there is no god so that I can commit this act." or "I can lie because there is no god." The lack of a god does not inhabit my mind like the faith that there is a god is in the minds of the religious. WWJD, He died for my sins, etc. Athiest don't think that way.

    LOL. I know it bugs people to think that, but it is much like calling Buddhism a faith. We don't worry about gods, yet it is a "religion" because they meet regularly, speak to morality, and have marriages, etc.

    However, there are currently in the US "congregations" of atheists who hold all the trappings of religion. There was a big show about them on the tube just a week or so ago. It was fascinating. Weddings, etc. They even talk about how their morality is soooo much better than the God Believers' morality during their "congregations"...

    That is flat a religion now. Just because you, like many Christians, don't show up to the meetings doesn't change that...

    So my lack of belief in Santa must make that a relgion as well.
