Depends how you define religion. If you stretch the definition far enough even can be called scientology is a religion -- (it's not).
Strictly speaking an atheist is a person who is not a theist.
If you want to call not being a theist a religion, suit yourself. But it's not.
No way. That's been tried and it doesn't work. A more important reason is that even though I don't believe in religion I do believe in human rights. And if everybody's rights are not protected than my rights are not protected either.
The swastika was a religious symbol before the Nazis used it but I don't wear one on my arm. The word "gay" used to mean happy but when somebody asks how I'm doing I don't say I'm gay.
Calling your son Lucifer is a really bad idea no matter what it used to mean or how much you like it.
Don't think so -- at least not reliably. Nobody predicted the 9/11 attacks. No psychic has predicted where bin Ladin is. I don't see any psychics finding missing children or preventing crimes or accidents. Every single one of the many doomsday prophets through history were wrong.

Did the bible really predict Alexander the Great? Please cite chapter & verse. I'm really curious.
When I was in college in the seventies the big thing for the end-times crowd was that the world would end one or two generations after Israel...
Those building went down in a perfectly controlled implosion. The flag pole was still upright on top of the rubble. I don't know if Bush was in on it but we know he intended to invade Iraq when he took office. We obviously don't know "the rest of the story".
I agree. Christians call it fellowship. There's nothing wrong with it but it's a fact that people who don't get into the social life of a church don't stay with it. You see and hear and interact with people. God is an abstraction.
Religious faith is like a slowly leaking tire - it needs to be...
Circumcision is a barbarity which thankfully is going out of style. I wouldn't cut scars into any baby I cared about. I'm not sure what you mean by cradle boarding.
