re: Satanic Temple puts up display at Michigan Capital

Yes, but then how could a baby be said to be an atheist. They merely "lack" belief in God. A lacking of a belief cannot be a belief in respect to something for it is a mere lack of belief. If you want to say the baby believes that God does not exists then it holds a belief and does not merely lack belief. I might be misreading you. If so I apologize.

That's why I argued much earlier in this thread that people shouldn't lump in all atheists together, like they're a bloc.

Agreed on this point.
