"atheism has dogma too: "The universe is self-existing and self created, the Earth is approximately 4.5 billion years old, life began as a result of spontaneous generation, Mankind is a result of organic evolution, Morality is an artificial construct of humans-there is no transcendent moral standard, religion and religious belief/dogma is harmful to human development, religion is antithetical to reason, etc"

NOT!

Atheism has no dogma. You were stating beliefs. The fact that many of them are accepted scientific ideas does not have anything to do with atheism. There is no law which says an atheist must
follow science.
An atheist does not even require to be rational. An atheist simply does not believe in a supernatural creator.

Nor does an atheist need to believe in Evolution. Irrelevant. An atheist is an A Theist. PERIOD.
