If that was a threadshit, I would think the second post in the thread is also a threadshit:

> [@The Atheist 10 Commandments](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-atheist-10-commandments/966568/2):
>
> Atheists are humanists as opposed to deists, so commandments stating what they do and don’t believe/do would be antithetical to their basic belief that humans determine their own destiny.

FWIW I don’t think either was really a threadshit. From my perspective the OP topic needs elaboration. What’s an atheist bible? An atheist communion? Atheist crucifix? I wouldn’t criticize someone for asking that, but it seems fair game to ask how someone’s supposed to answer something that doesn’t logically scan.
