Atheangelism

Thank you for your comments on the article "atheangelism".

You raise 2 reasons for suggesting its deletion:

1. Neutral Point of View 2. Neoligism

1. Neutral point of view is not violated with this article. The terms "atheangelism", "atheistic evangelism", and "evangelical atheism" are interchangeble, in use by Christian apologists and atheists alike.

Please look at the references at the bottom of the page.

Generally speaking, "atheangelism" and "atheistic evangelism" are terms used by Christian apologists to describe the phenomenon described in the article.

"Evangelical atheism" has been used in the same way "atheangelism" and "atheistic evangelism" have been used by Christian apologists, but has also been used by atheists as well. If you look at the article, I now describe the different ways atheists and Christian apologists use this last term.

2. With regards to the use of atheangelism as a neoligism, you are correct that "atheangelism" per se is a relatively new term. However, it has been adopted for clarity with regards to the two other terms with similar meaning --"atheistic evangelism" and "evangelical atheism".

These latter terms have been widely used for the past decade and a half.

Please let me know if the changes that have been made in the article address your concerns satisfactorily, and if you would consider removing your request for deletion.
