    Again, what definition am I coming up with here?

    Atheism is contrary to theistic religious doctrine- namely, the doctrine that a god or gods exist. That’s literally the definition of heresy as I provided.

    What did I invent?

      ok man, I tried, the dictionary was of no help, maybe consult wikipedia or turn to a priest. He will also tell you that an atheist is not considered a heretic. And if you go on like this with him, he’ll might make you a heretic. But only! if you are a follower of his religion already. Otherwise he just won’t give a flying fuck.

        I literally provided a link to a Christian website talking about how atheists are heretics.

        And “atheist” and “heretic” are literally the same word in Arabic, which means that, at minimum, 2 in 8 people believe that atheists are heretics.
