I'm an atheist, but it's not my religion. This thread's OP is waaaay too paradoxal.

Agnostic atheist - I believe that people's ideas of deities/certain religious beliefs are false, but that it's impossible to prove the existence of any higher being or anything beyond our comprehension.

At least, atheism is a religion meme, isn't it? It's an idea that says something about gods. In an world without gods (real or imaginary), atheism wouldn't have to exist either.
I don't believe in a community of purple plastic dinosaurs living at night in my back yard. But as nobody believes in such a thing, I don't have to talk about this particular disbelief.
What flavor of ice-cream do you like most? None, I don't like ice-cream(*).
What's your religion? None, I'm atheist(**). Perfectly okay answer to a perfectly okay question, I would say.
(*) False statement, by the way; I like vanilla.
(**) True statement.

If you are very, very religious, then perhaps you should avoid this video.
But this is exactly how I feel about religion-- this man just happened to
say it a million times better than I ever could.
This guy makes me smile like this

Wow. I don't believe this man appreciates the irony of his crusade against evangelism and a "supercilious, hectoring tone".
He makes the same mistake many atheists do, especially the repellent kind like himself and Richard Dawkins. He requires proof from a system of thought that is based around faith...i.e., the idea that proof is not possible. He criticizes a banana for not being an orange.

Well I managed to get half-way through where he said he didnt give a damn about my beliefs, to which of course I decided to repay in kind. His little temper tantrum is one of the best proofs to show the truth of Proverbs 24:7 "Wisdom is too high for a fool to understand."

Haha, he is talking about religious people that keep on trying to sell their religion. It's like trying to sell a car to someone who is fine with the car they already got. Then when told "No," keeps on trying to sell the car no matter what. Now add fifty car salesmen a day, and you will understand why "Fuck off," is thrown in your face in the end.
