Well... it's your definition of a belief system... The epistemology of the word belief tells us another thing. You should read a little more and not being so subjective when you're talking about atheism... A belief system can refer to a religion as it can refer to a world view or a philosophy. Your arguments are invalid buddy...
While I agree with your point, in this case it was being presented with three traditional "religions," not with other "belief systems" that referred to world view or philosophy.
I just get annoyed when people talk about or present atheism as a "religion." ;o)
Those who think Islam is 'benevolent and peaceful' in the face of all the evidence to the contrary are, indeed, proving that nothing is so absurd that it will not attract supporters.
All mentioned have faces of violence throughout it's history. I see the question as which of ones mentioned is the most peaceful and benevolent. Hard to answer if you're referring to encapsulating each's actions since the time of it's inception. If you refer to now, than what now? Yesterday, all of last year... you see its hard one to answer.
If the question is geared to what your current perception is, than shut your eyes, turn the key and hit the gas and pick one.
I agree with the majority. Then Judaism, then Islam, then Christianity. Far more have been killed by Christians than by all other three groups combined.
A born again Christian.
A senior citizen of Heaven.
Politically INcorrect but
Biblically correct.
A preacher and writer of
Bible prophecy.
I lament the world's fast
retreat from God and
all hope.
Atheism is not a "belief" system. It is the absence of a theistic belief system (i.e., there is no "First Church of Atheism").

As of now - whether today, this year, or the last few decades - Islam is by a very wide (think gigantic) margin the most murderous.
