An Atheist Bible?

I saw a suggestion today that Atheists should have their own book like the Bible. Is it possible to have an atheistic cultural equivalent of a bible? If so what do you think it would consist of?

If anyone could write it, EH could! On the other hand, why would atheists want anything to do with a "bible?" I could see a Handbook for Humanists, or something like that, but isn't the definition of atheism what you don't believe rather than what you do? I wasn't aware that they would be for anything in particular.

Why? We all differ in our beliefs and any beliefs we do adhere too already have writings on them:

Eudaimonism
Objectivism
Buddhism
Humanism
Laveyan Satanism

I have always thought that atheism is a religion too, but the idea of a bible would be funny. I think someone should write one and see if it sells.

I think it would be neat, and I'd even like to read it...

"THE ATHEIST BIBLE"

lol .

I feel l am being set up for this obvious 'stand up comedy' routine due here lol.

........ But seriously since the apparent 'horns' have appeared on the great Benny Hinn's head and his ,,,,, "on the lamb" , running from his followers, for 'turning Atheist', and that he may get 'clobbered' by one with their canes the 'Atheist Bible' is now in creation .

" discusting " says Peter Poffoff .

" is there a 'bridge' in that one ? " Moses was quoted .

" this is great " says the fabulous Evangelishishumanish .

" I believe in this " Hinn was quoted .

,,,,,more news as it comes and from any clips from the new Atheist Bible .

" Amazing and new " stated the Pope .
