It's as much as a religion as all the other religions out there. It's become one, with all the clueless idiots who jump onto the bandwagon these days.

I'm Athesit myself, however, it's become so big, and many of the people are ignorant to the point where it reminds me of a religion.

It's become a fad now, and is actually filled with agnostics who only think they don't believe, but when you ask them in depth, it's clear that they're not sure.

I prefer not to call myself as Atheist, and personally, I would prefer a different term.

I do not believe in a God, however, like many atheists, I do not view religious people as delusional people. Religion shapes people in many ways. In many ways our feeble minds could never imagine.

Enough about Atheism though.

As for the Big Bang theorem, it's definitely interesting, and intriguing. But again, it's quite like atheism these days, it's become huge, and is some sort of fad where people weave little tales and speak about things when they haven't studied in the area.

Another thing I find amazingly interesting, is how the Big Bang and a belief that God did not create the world, is linked.

Here's a quick recap of a discussion with a religious friend.

----

Him: What's your belief about God?

Me: Don't believe there is one.

Him: Really? How can you not? Is your faith that weak?

Me: Nothing to do with faith. I simply cannot believe that something that is just... there, can create the world simply with a snap of his hand.

Him: Oh, and so the Big Bang Theory is so much more better, is it?

Me: Who said anything about the Big Bang?

Him: Well... I thought since you don't believe in God that...

Me: That I automatically believe in the Big Bang theory? Don't be an idiot. the Big Bang theory is just that. I do not believe in it, nor do I dis-believe it. Until it has been proven, it is still a theory. Our mind and science is still very insufficient to prove such things as the creation of the world, let alone the universe. We still have at least a few more hundred years before coming close, and who knows what other theories will come up?

Him: But, why do that when you know God created the world?

Me: because even that, is a theory. An old one. But as I said before. It took us this long to get away from God creating the world, to the Big Bang. It'll improve.
