It can be, certainly. But it is not, in itself, often fought for. What was fought for in france was social equality and governmental power. What is fought for lately is social equality and the right to equal opportunity. Someone in another thread said, "There are no real Atheist ideals," and it's true. Atheism isn't an organized group and most times an Atheist would describe their lack of faith as just that, and not as a cause.
And I agree with the second point. "Loyalty -- to a **cause**, an **idea**, or a **Nazarene** -- is what gives life its purpose." When I talk about God, I talk about serving Him and trying to let Him guide me. There are some who don't like this idea of living, who say that if I didn't believe I would be free-er to do what I want as an individual. But I contend that everyone is serving someone or something, usually ideals, and that the people who say that often don't realize in themselves what it is that they are serving.
There's nothing here!
