A very good article on big think" the necessity of atheism".
http://bigthink.com/21st-century-spirituality/the-necessity-of-atheism
My view is that it challenges religion and is a necessity for the health of religion and a product of institutional aspect of religions. Often times, religion becomes a horrible joke and becomes intellectually broken rapidly. I have a rather enjoyable time here mocking atheism in it's hyper primativism of understanding of nature, and although primative as it is religion can be infinitely worse. So for me atheism kicks religion in the butt as its needed. Certainly I could be called an atheist. I don't actually believe in God! Unfortunately I also do not "not believe" in God nor am I agnostic about it. I am far to numinous for any of that nonsense which makes up normalcy and the larger spectrum. I am a kind of Austic individual, but not autistic, but synesthete, the far far other end of the spectrum. As such the article is about the poet shelly and in my wheelhouse so to speak. The debates we have and the understanding he had is based on a rather primative, quaint understanding of the topic "nature" and his place in it. Not unlike the church of his day.
