Dialog:

Port:
- One big PR problem that atheists have is the name "atheist."
- It is too close to "anarchist."
- People get confused and think the atheists want to abolish all government and destroy the authority of all rulers.
Starboard:
- So what would be a better name?
Port:
- Right now, I'm leaning towards "desolatist."

“Secularists” or “worldliests” are also options.

I like it. We could then expand on it and say things like “I de-theistised myself when I was 19.”

Anarchy isn’t the abolition of all authority. It simply means that another should not have authority over you if you did not allow him/her.

When I hire someone to work in my garden, he is voluntarily placing himself under my authority and will do what I ask of him in matters of gardening.
