      Eh, based on how many people put so much effort into treating their lack of interest in sports as a personality trait, and in demonstrating how they don’t care about sports even more than other people who don’t care about sports…the analogy seems…at least amusing if not entirely accurate.

        In my experience “atheism is a religion” is only an argument religious ppl make when they have no real argument otherwise. It’s semantics and frankly, who cares? Call it a religion if you like. Idgaf.

      “I hate the NY Yankees, but I’m not a sports fan” said no one ever.

        How about “I used to be a fan but the Yankee’s fucking ruined the entire sport for me?”

        Also, I bet “I hate the NY Yankees, but I’m not a sports fan." is said multiple times per day across America in various contexts. For example the guy that has to park next to the stadium or the non enthusiast spouse of an over the top fan.

        “I hate God” said no atheist ever.
