It is worth noting that no one ever need identify himself as a non-astrologer or a non-alchemist. Consequently, we do not have words for people who deny the validity of these pseudo-disciplines. Likewise, “atheism” is a term that should not even exist.

Except that for some people non-belief is *so* important that they blog about it constantly ;-) I believe that atheism, when the term truly applies, is not only a philosophy, but a religion.
