would it be better and more productive for atheists to call themselves secularists as Sam Harris suggests:

That would just confuse the religious. They are confused enough already.

Sam Harris, the Martin Luther of Atheism? It's only a matter of time before atheist divide up into different sects. You already have the militants, the pacifists and the intellectual atheists. The problem is none of these are actually atheists and those who are atheists probably don't even call themselves that.

Being an atheist, I would rather be called a reasoning human than a stupid, brainwashed, irresponsible and superstitious nut-job, who displays all the finest characteristics of a sheep, as most believers in any god are!!!
People of the world - think for yourself!!!
