    "As with [any] ideology, atheism can be part of a philosophy." It is not a philosophy.

    It's the usual semantics war again.

    Yes, what you state above can be taken as truthful, as can:

    "As with any ideology, theism can be part of a philosophy." It is not a philosophy.

    This is also true.

    However, the basic acceptance of whether a God exists or not is one of, if not the basic building block of an individuals philosophy.

    Very true.

    But in its essence, it is simply the rejection of the belief in the existence of a god and/or gods, due to lack of positive inarguable evidence.

    Tal vez sea asi teoricamente, pero en la realidad implica muchisimo mas.

    First. Damned. Sentence.

    Reread. That. Sentence.

    "AS A PHILOSOPHY".

    In some select cases, the term might be used as a philosophy. It is not DEFINED as a philosophy in this quote. Indeed, this sentence structure explicitly says the opposite.

    Myopic.

    BA sees self and cannot comprehend a wider world.

    ve - seeing belief in God the least thing of value in an individual's philosophy

    Atheism is based upon a materialist philosophy, which holds that nothing exists but natural phenomena. There are no supernatural forces or entities, nor can there be any. Nature simply exists.

    Perhaps Daphne or yourself could explain how an atheist can believe in ghosts or life after death yet still be an atheist.

    Yes, if perception is reality then there are many realities.
