In all formal religions, ‘God’ or the like rules.
In modern politics, ‘The People’ rules itself.
The world calls someone an atheist if he doesn’t believe in the existence of a ‘Ruling God’ (or just ‘God’ since the world, in general, doesn’t know yet a non-ruling God).
Did anyone here see and/or talk to ‘We, The People’?
I never had the chance to meet and/or talk to ‘The People’ though I hear of it almost continuously whenever I listen to a speech of one of the great modern politicians around the world while he is addressing his local multitudes, if not the entire world.
To me in the least, ‘The People’ could refer, at best, to zillion of families that each of them is divided within itself, but, at the same time, a certain law is imposed on all of them by a certain group playing their legitimate ruler (privileged by rules created and supervised actually by their powerful high class).
In case you got my point, you would expect that, to me in the least, the statement, ‘The People rules itself’, is just the title of a series of tales written for adults, theist and atheist. Fortunately, most people around the world don't mind believing everything in this series as real because it doesn't include any supernatural being ruling them
Now, back to the thread’s title, what could someone be called if he doesn’t believe in the existence of ‘We, The People’ as a real entity? Is he called a political atheist
Thank you.
