I find it odd that when filling out a form that asked me what my religion is one of the choices is Atheist.
What now? That is the that opposite of religion.

You would only be partially correct, as previously explained
I do not actively believe there is a higher power, so I am atheistic
I am open to the potential, so a fairly accurate simple description would be “agnostic atheist”, or “someone who doesn’t know whether or not there’s a higher power and lives assuming there is not”
You’ll notice that despite atheist being in there I’ve not only not made the positive claim that there’s no god, I’m even open to the idea of something of that nature existing, because that’s not what atheism is about
That is interesting. I guess not all atheists could be categorised as a religion then. Thanks for sharing!
