Actually some atheists like that Raeleins do have a book and follow a dogma so he can't speak for all atheists. He should've said my type of atheist.

After listening to them, I doubt that Moore and Harries have a clue as to what fundamentalism really is.

Dawks is pwning the bible bashers :D
Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

The Raelians are religious, they worship Rael.

But they don't worship any god so in the technical sense they are. But I suppose you could say the same about scientologists. Nah your right. Its too much of a stretch to call them true atheists (is that a No True Scotsman fallacy?)

If he meant "Classical", then Zeus. The Greco-Roman gods dominated Classicism, IIRC.
