    Almost every religion has a tenant of the rejection of every other religion, and then goes on to persecute the other ones believers.

    If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck… it might be a duck.

      That doesn’t make atheism a religion, nor does atheism call for the persecution of anyone. Your logic is flawed and your argument is factually incorrect.

      All ducks have legs, but not all birds with legs are ducks.

        A muscovy duck isn’t a duck. Technically.

        But if someone complains about all the misbehaving ducks in the pond and your defense for your duck’s musbehaviour is “technically not a duck!” you’re not really saying anything of worth.
