If your identification as an atheist or Buddhist doesn't matter to this thread, why make such a big deal out of it and try to make a gotcha out of it in the first place? Jeebus, you've gone from arguing like Paul to arguing like Baym. Nobody was really arguing that Buddhists don't count as atheists, anyhow (at least some Buddhists). The problem with your charts is that they lump nonreligious theists in with atheists.
Now I'm Paul, Baym and an Atheist all rolled up into one...
You just love your labels....

Then lump in Buddhists with Atheists - 2nd largest, 3rd largest group whateva...
Pretty sure my point towards Corky is still in tact...

Saying you argue like someone isn't a label, it's a comparison. As for calling you an athiest, like I said I thought you had identified yourself as one. It's pretty funny that you say it doesn't matter when you keep bringing it up in every post.
The only label that I've applied to you in this thread that I stand by is "dumb".

Okay. It's been bugging me since I have a great memory. And wow I was a dick in that thread. Sorry SoO. I might have been having a bad day or something.

My mother knew I was an atheist when she was dying - Heck my whole family knew it for a long time.
Not making an issue of it Reese. I pride myself in paying attention so I knew I read it somewhere is all.

In that context as far as my mother was concerned I was a straight up Atheist - after the family stopped going to church (was raised as a Lutheran) - I floated around reading, researching, listening and came up with nothing. I was stuck on Taoism for a bit but never considered myself to be anything remotely close to a Taoist.
I would say though over the past 3-5 years (more so the past 2-3 years) I have been moving more and more towards Buddhism, Secular Buddhism to be more precise...
Anyway - nice find!
