		The Chambers Dictionary defines antitheism in three different ways: "doctrine antagonistic to theism; denial of the existence of a God; opposition to God." The first is closest to Hitchens' usage, which seems to be a generally anti-religious belief rather than an exclusively opposition to belief in deities.
		Earlier definitions of antitheism include that of the French Catholic philosopher Jacques Maritain (1953), for whom it is "an active struggle against everything that reminds us of God" (p.104), and that of Robert Flint (1877), Professor of Divinity at the University of Edinburgh.

	Antitheism Information
		The word has had a range of applications; in secular contexts, it typically refers to direct opposition to belief in any deity, while in theistic ones, it sometimes refers to opposition to the actual entity God.
		The concept allows a useful distinction to be made between the mere philosophical rejection of theism, atheism, and a position of antipathy or opposition towards such beliefs.
		However, Hitchens' use of the word seems to be as general anti-religious belief rather than exclusively as opposition to belief in deities.

		Atheism should not be confused with the related, but not equivalent, position of antitheism, as many atheists do not directly oppose theism.
		Antitheism (sometimes hyphenated) typically refers to a direct opposition to theism.

		In his article, he imagines what arguments for the existence of an evil God would look like: "Antitheists, like theists, would have believed in an omnipotent, omniscient, eternal creator; but whereas theists in fact believe that the supreme being is also perfectly good, antitheists would have believed that he was perfectly evil.

	Deism vs Atheism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		I’m using antitheism as an alternate term for fundamentalist atheism, which is obviously intended to mean something distinct from atheism in general.
		Antitheism - given that "anti-" means "opposition to" - is opposition to theism.
		And stating that mysticism is not a subset of theism hardly contradicts the fact that theism is subset of mysticism.

	Atheism, a simple concept - Why monotheists just don't get it?
		Antitheism is not even mentioned in philosophical dictionaries or philosophical encyclopedias.
		"Antitheism is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as "One opposed to belief in the existence of a God." The earliest citation given for this meaning is from 1833.
		What the Oxford definition may fail to make clear is that an antitheist is categorically opposed to belief in the existence of any god or gods, and not merely one in particular.

		And it is nonsense - certainly for those of us that actually read his writings - to assert that Dawkins supposed "militant antitheism" is "faith-based" as he provides mountains of reasons for why any rational person should shun the dogma's of theism.
		And one could hardly be serious in citing N Korea as being typical or representative of the secular state.
		Dawkins has not been labeled a "fundamentalist" for no reason:his miltant antitheism is as doctrinaire and faith-based as that of any other type of irrationality.

	Atheism
		Some formal religious beliefs, such as several forms of Buddhism, have been described as atheistic due to their lack of any participating deities, these beliefs are not generally identified as such by adherents.
		Atheism is also sometimes erroneously equated with antitheism (opposition to theism) or antireligion (opposition to religion), despite many atheists not holding such views.
		For Smith, explicit atheism is subdivided further according to whether or not the rejection is made on rational grounds.

		The third stage then is Antitheism where the adherent actively fights against the promulgation of any religion whatsoever.

		Apparently it can either be used in a secular context as a direct opposition to the concept of god, or in a religious context as the belief in an evil God.
		As the old saying goes, atheism is as much a religion as not collecting stamps is a hobby.
		That is what I meant with mixing up the two concepts, in the secular tense, antitheism is exactly what you seemed to mean.

		Mohler wants to funnel the riches of the uncontainable into a container, and then he wants to "defend" against a particular contrarian's atheism and antitheism without ever doing justice to the values that are positive to the person so tagged.
		Mohler is an establishmentarian Christian, I am a contrarian Christian (but such adjectival-qualifier terms hardly qualify themselves as definitions, both Mohler and Hitchens to the contrary notwisthstanding; they're are only relative, not absolute, should any of Mohler's readers have thawt otherwise).

	What is an ANTItheist? \| Rational Responders
		We are not here out of hate for theists, we're here to help save them from their own irrationality.
		But what antitheism is not is an opposition of a living being, known to some (erroneously) as God, but rather the idea of theistic belief.
		Interestingly enough, and much to the chagrin of Theists, all children are, by definition, born atheist.

		It appears then that even when we discuss what seems to be such a self-evident matter as the usus instrumentalis of the intellect of man, we must be on our guard against (a) all forms of antitheistic anti-intellectualism, and (b) all forms of antitheistic intellectualisms.
		We find that there is no more fundamental difference between theism and antitheism than on the matter of predication.
		Theism holds that all predication presupposes the existence of God as a self-conscious being, while antitheism holds that predication is possible without any reference to God.

	Blogger News Network » The Antitheism of Richard Dawkins: A Review of The God Delusion
		Dawkins does not present a case for atheism —; he presents a polemic for antitheism.
		He is unable to consider that many wars were not fought over religion, but that religion played a role in wars that would have taken place anyway.
		What some are hailing as a defense of reason, Bambenek shows to be what he calls, “a rehash of pop philosophy and loosely strung together anecdotes, half-truths, and outright falsehoods”.

		Since it is surrounded by beliefs in gods, to preserve its identity it must also be antitheist; that is, it must reject the idea of God as a threat to human freedom.
		Modern atheism or antitheism, then, must be regarded as an event, just as the other original families of unbelief under discussion are.
		It occurs and can occur only where belief is or has been.
