Both are labels for groups of people, and both groups are growing.
I think you are willfully misunderstanding me.

I am not stating that because two otherewise unlinked things are growing (and I do not agree atheism is growing) that they are the same thing.

I am questioning why you placed the two things - atheism and Islam - together in a statement and opposed them to Judaism and Christianity.

I can understand some growth in certain rich countries of agnosticism (if that is the right term) - but to me real atheism - the active and religious disbelief in God is as silly as Satanism.

(and I do not say that are the SAME thing, I say that they are equally silly, equally illogical)
