    Atheism as noted in many of your answers is not a religion and therefore is not likely to organize. Then again, Buddhism is not supposed to be a religion either, yet there are Buddhist temples. I wonder if the need for organized religion is in part to develop a structured framework to prove the unprovable to the general population. Imagine an atheist service. "There is no God. Amen. OK, you can now all go home." Seems hardly worth the brick and mortar to create the structure.

    ...And here is one of those moments, when I wonder, "WHY do we pretend that low IQ and religion do not go hand-in-hand?" I don't think it's impolite to state the obvious...but that's probably why I'm not liked by many.

    To answer your question...Atheism is to be "a-theist", a Theist is a person who believes in Theology. Theology is the study of a religious belief. So, a Theist, for example, would be a person who is Christian, or Muslim, or Jewish, or Hindu, or Bahai (etc). Because they all believe in a religion/god.

    People who do not believe in ANY theological belief, are not-theist, kind of like how when something is not-semetrical, it is called "asymentrical". The "a" indicates "not".

    So, to be an Atheist, one simply just does not believe in any god or religion. Thats all there is to it.

    The only "leader" we have is ourself.

    It's not a religion,

    and no, there is no leader...

    Atheism is a stance on the existence of gods... ONLY!!! a fact that appears to be rocket science to many, or indicates a learning disorder... so which is your issue?

    IMHO

    Since atheism is not a religion, there can be no leader.

    YES!

    Atheism is a religion!

    The leader and FOUNDER is SATAN!

    Satan said - "All this I will give you," he said, "if you will bow down and worship me." [Matthew 4:9]

    Jesus replied: Jesus said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.'" [Matthew 4:10]

    Jesus confirmed his mission statement >>> Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshippers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshippers the Father seeks. [John 4:23]

    As you can see from Matthew 4:10 and John 4:23 - those Christians who say and worship Jesus as God are deluded atheists and will end up in the same location as arrogant atheists!

    Atheists bow down and worship Satan through their rejection and denial of the existence of God - so they are inadvertently following the religion of Satan - which is to divert worship and recognition away from God!

    But on the DAY when those who disbelieve are confronted with the reality - they will remember Guantanamo Bay - Allah Will be in charge - just like America is in charge - Angels will be in charge just like America armed guards are in charge and DISBELIEVERS will be POWERLESS just like the detainees of Guantanamo Bay are powerless on earth - you must have seen them on TV! - enjoy life while you can - you will come to know whether you or God will have the final SAY!

    As many thumbs down as possible are welcomed - at least you cannot then deny not haven been told!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
