atheism isnt the religion
Wow! It's about bloody time! You finally fucking get!
evolutionism is the religion
But you've come so far, Why fuck it all up now? No one who properly understands evolutionary theory "worships" evolution, nor do they consider Darwin to be a "prophet". Evolution is a proven, observible, and incontrivertible fact, ithe concept of which predates Darwin himself by at least several decades.
religion= a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe
That is not the definition of a religion, nor do any of those benchmarks describe evolutionary theory in any way whatsoever. Evolution is not at all concerned, nor speaks to the cause, nature, or purpose of the universe. The only thing evolution concerns is to seek to explain the diversity of life by means of natural selection.
so simply not believing in God doesnt constitute a religion
So very, very close...
but believing in evolution is a religion and that religion is evolutionism
And yet so very, very far. People, at least the ones who understand what evolutionary theory comprises, do "believe" in evolution, they accept it on the basis of the evidence provided. Belief is reserved for concepts that cannot be proven or directly observed.
