Ashitaka (nice name =p)-
Sorry for taking so long to respond. Well, I normally don't capitalize atheism, unless it's standing alone as a topic heading, or at the beginning of a sentence =p. I don't know exactly how to express it, but since atheism is simply lacking belief in the concept of a god, it doesn't seem to warrant a capital A. Christianity, Islam, etc, I think, all warrant such a capitalization, because they often express an entire set of beliefs or customs. Capitalizing atheism seems just as logical as capitalizing theism, or going around saying I'm a Person. Heh -Makai |
