Does seeing "God as
The One I Am in All" make
One an "atheist"?

Does relating to
God as "Other than I Am"
Make One a "theist"?

[Rich Note: I recently noticed an "atheist tag" (with 25 agreements or 14% of 10 total reviewer tags) on the Amazon.com purchase page for OOMM. Something that raises a question here as to what "particular god" an "atheist" doesn't believe in?]

[Rich Note: I also wonder if those who tagged OOMM as atheistic were atheists who agreed with OOMM's premise of "God as the Aware-Presence, Conscious Awareness or Witnessing Presence of Being I Am"; or Conceptual Theists who believe in a "God that is other than I Am," unwittingly or not.]

[Rich Note: So it is in the spirit of curiosity, I ask anyone who has read anything posted on this blog for the last year and a half to be so kind as to give their own opinion (with or without amplification) as to whether they consider anything that has being offered "atheistic"?]
