No.
The moment somebody says anything along the lines of “well, atheism is kind of like a religion anyway. So in a way, your beliefs are based just as much on faith as mine,” I will drop out of a debate. That person is too ridiculous to continue speaking to. I will let them think they have won the debate; that’s fine with me. Instead of ranting and raving, however, I’m just going to have some fun this time with our favorite game of “If atheism is a religion…”
- If atheism is a religion, then bald is a hair color.
- If atheism is a religion, then not collecting stamps is a hobby.
- If atheism is a religion, then “off” is a TV channel.
- If atheism is a religion, then health is a disease.
- If atheism is a religion, then unemployment is a job.
- If atheism is a religion, then “nowhere” is a place.
- If atheism is a religion, then silence is a volume.
- If atheism is a religion, then not playing tennis is a sport.
Add more in the comments and I’ll edit them into the post.
