I'm always irritated when people try to make atheism into anymore than a lack of religious or godly beliefs.
I agree with this. Personally, one reason why I avoid the term, is because IMO people often confuse 'atheism' with an opinion on religion. People like Richard Dawkins don't help. -If you want to convince people that there is no God, go for it. If you want to convince people that religion is bad, go for it. But, dammit, realize that they are two separate arguments, and mixing them doesn't make either one stronger. As for this Temple to Atheism, it doesn't bother me that they call it a temple. All temples are built for beliefs, but not all temples are built for worship. Atheism, at least how most people define it, is a belief. If people argue about it, I'd say the temple is doing its job.
