Atheist describes my position on the existence of god. Anti-theist, my attitude towards god-beliefs. Humanist, my values

And so on. Ppl are multifaceted. We share some facets and not others. You share atheism & humanism w me but not anti-theism

It is tribal to want to separate ppl into one primary identity & get one group to condemn another.

We are a social species who live in groups. Call it "tribal" if you want it (IMO tribal refers to a set of ethnic clan-thinking)

Of course, you can be perfectly atheist without being humanist or anti-theistic.

But by throwing it all together, you deny non-humanist non-anti-theistic atheists the opportunity to chose not to identify.

Everyone can define as they want. Or not. I cld say that you are better described as a fatheist & put you in a diff room.

If that is necessary, sure. Although I'm also a virulent Islam critic and shunned by leftist faithists as Islamophobe ;-).

The divisions get smaller and smaller. Why not just accept that some ppl disbelieve in gods and have varied views on relig?
