I will say though... (again from dictionary.com)
# Of or having to do with a material object.
# Having actual existence or reality.

# Uninfluenced by emotions or personal prejudices: an objective
critic. See Synonyms at fair1.
# Based on observable phenomena; presented factually: an objective appraisal.
it would seem that atheism is objective in that truth behind religion
is not an observable phenomenon (but I suppose one could argue that
neither is the falsity behind religion). I still prefer to think that
agnosticism is the way to go, though.
