anybody says will change his mind, for he will defend his deeply-held

Nonsense.
 
I have no deeply held beliefs, religious or otherwise.
 
Your flawed theory that the lack of belief in the supernatural
is "religious" is complete nonsense and a typical response from
a rabid believer.

This reminded me of a similar exchange in 2019:

Paul S Person.

But I have a simpler definition: Any religion that denies it's own
nature.

That is, any religion that claims not to be one.

OK Humpty Dumpty. Doesn't religion involve the supernatural?

Prominent examples include Communism and Secular Humanism.

Neither of which involve anything supernatural.
If Communism is a religion then so is Capitalism.
The easiest way to define the word secular is not religious.
You are saying Not Religious Humanism is a Religion.

If everybody gets to redefine common terms to have a different meaning:
Ooh look, there's Paul riding his cat into the library to buy cutlery to
water his carpet.
