The problem with this point in the current page is that the page asserts that atheism constitutes the \'\'absence\'\' of \'\'one\'\' belief -- \'\'not\'\' an entire belief system. There \'\'are\'\' atheist religions -- the page mentions these -- and there are evangelical, affirmative, positive atheists in the Western Enlightenment tradition -- the page mentions these as well -- but there is no canon of belief which constitutes such a label. The Daniel Smartt article linked does not change these facts.

An enlargement on secular humanism would be appropriate, of course. But let\\\'s not confuse labels.
